When you are framing a wall. The studs should be between 14 and 16 inches apart depending on the kind of wall you are putting up, typically they are about 16 inches apart.
If you are asking how long they should be from the ceiling to the floor then that is simple.
Framing means you need to make a solid square with the studs inbetween, so you need to put a 2x4 along the top, and along the bottom as well as the sides. Once those are in put the 2x4 'stud' between and trim off excess to fit inside the bottom and top frame.
if you don't know what you are doing, you should probably be consulting a professional. Especially if you plan on running electrical wires through the wall.
make sure the walls are insulated, and depending on the room or location you may also need a moisture barrier.

How many 2 x 4 studs do you need for a room that is 16 x 16?
Studs are normally on 16 inch centerlines, so, with 16 feet being 192 inches, you would need 12 plus 1 (for the starting stud) plus 2 (for the top and bottom plates) per wall. That is 15 studs per wall. Multiply that by 4 and you get 60 studs for the room. This doing not count framing for doors and windows, nor does it count studs for the floor and ceiling. If you get 16 foot studs, you can use 8 for the caps, leaving you needing 52 studs that are 8 foot long, so you would need 26 16 foot studs to make the 52 8 foot studs. The total required studs, then, is 34 16 foot studs.
How do you calulate studs for walls?
