It chimes at 15 minute intervals, making it 96 times in a 24-hour period.
Very accurately.

It depends on the clock; None of my clocks chime even once. A clock that rings the quarter hours (like the clock in the Palace of Westminster - aka, Big Ben) would chime 96 times per 24 hours. Some clocks only chime on the hours, which would be 24 chimes/day.
If it takes Big Ben 30 seconds to chine 6 o'clock, then it takes 60 seconds to chime 12 o'clock.
Approximately 30 seconds.
Yes. All through the night. Even at night when there's little traffic, it's surprisingly difficult to hear the chimes much beyond Parliament Square so there's no real reason why it shouldn't.

Big Ben's chime can reach a volume of around 118 decibels. This makes it one of the loudest clock chimes in the world. The sound can be heard from several miles away, and its iconic bongs mark the hour, contributing to its status as a symbol of London. The chime's distinctive sound is produced by the Great Bell, which weighs over 13 tons.
7812 times per week.
The chimes go like ''Ding,Dong,Ding,Dong,Ding,Dong,Ding,Dong'' It does that every hour at any hour but for example its 11am. It will chime 11.
Big Ben is a symbol of strength, grandeur and aspiring architecture. The bells are the most desirable feature. The tourists flock to this landmark for the architectural scene and the chime of the bells.
Big Ben strikes every 15 minutes 24/7 and has done so since 1859.
