12 hour clock but could say the time in a 24 hour clock Analogue describes construction, not hours. It can be either.
1630 hours is 4.30pm.
5am in the 24-hour clock is 0500 hours.
The phrase "around the clock" means 24 hours. A store that is open around the clock is open 24 hours a day. The phrase is often used to indicate that someone or an agency is working full tilt on a project.

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 the time now is T hours (on a 24 hour clock), then the answer is mod(21 - T, 24) hours.
