The time it takes for water to reach room temperature depends on several factors, including the initial temperature of the water, the volume of water, the surrounding air temperature, and airflow. Generally, a small container of water left at room temperature can take anywhere from 30 minutes to a few hours to reach equilibrium. Larger volumes or cooler environments may take longer.

The time it takes for 2 gallons of water to reach room temperature will depend on the initial temperature of the water, the room temperature, and the surrounding conditions. In a typical room environment, it may take a few hours for 2 gallons of water to reach room temperature if starting from a colder temperature.

The room temperature will tend to move towards whatever the outside temperature is.

Butter can last for days at room temperature. But it is not recommended to leave it out for that long.
not too long
Pickles can sit out at room temperature for about 2 hours before they become unsafe to eat. After that, they should be refrigerated to prevent spoilage.
After an hour or so at room temperature, meat should be cooked.
they would be solids at room temperature.
Water itself does not go bad at room temperature. However, if the water is stored in a container that is not clean or if it is left exposed to contaminants, it can become unsafe to drink. It's generally recommended to consume water within 3-5 days if stored at room temperature.
Mercury is the only metal that is liquid at room temperature. Francium, Cesium, Gallium, and Rubidium become liquids slightly above room temperature, meaning you could watch them melt in your hand! Every other metal, however, is a solid at room temperature.
