Can you substitute half and half for milk in canned tomato soup?
I would say yes. My cousins were heating some up and we were out of milk and they used the (last of) half and half. They gave me some and were making faces and smirking. I think they thought it would taste nasty, but it was quite good.

How do you convert half and half into heavy cream?
If you're cooking, you can add butter and water to half and half to get an equivalent amount of heavy cream.
Heavy cream is 36% fat, half and half is 10% fat, butter is 81% fat. And water is 0% fat :). So, we just need to balance the half and half, butter, and water to give us the same volume and the same amount of fat.
To mimic one cup of heavy cream, use
.5 cup (121g) of half and half plus
.4 cup (91g) of butter plus
1/8 cup (28g) water.
I've done this for candy making (truffles and caramels) and it works fine. But I doubt this will do the trick for uses (like whipping) which don't involve cooking.

Can you substitute milk for half and half?
It really depends on the recipe and the needed consistency. In most cases, half&half or even whole milk can be substituted for light cream to make a recipe healthier. If the recipe calls for heavy cream, it's really a judgment call. You might try a halved recipe with half&half to test before making a full batch.
Substituting half&half or milk in a recipe calling for sweet (whipping) cream is generally NOT recommended.
