Two chairs and three chairs.
But squared does work in the real world, in certain contexts. It does not work with a chair because it is three-dimensional. But if you have, say, a line of six chairs, and you square the line, you now have a square of chairs, 6x6.

Maybe you haven't looked closely enough?
Perhaps it's
1 (chair) x 2 = 2 (chairs)
1 (chair) ^ 2 = 1 (chair)
In other words, you aren't multiplying chair times 2, but actually, 1 chair times 2... hope this is making some sense!?
