When they're bought it's usually 116 links for bikes with external gears. Single gear chains are sold a bit shorter. but this really isn't particularly helpful info. Every chain is sold a little longer than needed so that it can be cut to fit according to the bike it goes on to. This means that there's no way of telling how many links there are on a chain in use w/o counting them.

Does it matter how big is the chaine for a bmx bike?
There are two measurements to a chain, width and length. Most BMX use what's known as an 1/8" chain. Length, sometimes given in no of links will vary from bike to bike. If two otherwise identical bikes are set up with different sprockets and drivers they will need different chain lengths. Bike chains are always sold too long, and then cut to size. On top of that chains stretch, so the same number of links in a worn chain won't be the same as that number of links from a new chain.
How do you change the chain and sprockets?
Depends on the specific design of the bike. see links below for more.

How do you cut i bike chain?
To remove a bike chain, there is a special tool called a chain break tool, available at bike shops. What this tool does is push out a pin holding the links together. In an emergency, you could possibly use a vise to hold the chain, and a small nail punch to push out the pin. Using the tool designed for the job is much easier. If you are replacing links in the chain, or putting a new one on the bike, the tool can be used toreinstall the pin. Be careful when you push the pin out, that you don't push it completely out of both sides of the link. You want the pin to remain attached to one side of one link, or else you will spend a lot of time getting the pin reattached The tool can be somewhat expensive, so ask how much the bike shop would charge to remove the old worn out/rusty chain and install a new one. Refer to SheldonBrown.com/chains.html for more information and pictures to explain chain removal.
