The car boosting should run for ten minutes or so. The car with the dead battery will need to be charged for 8 hrs with a battery charger, but as long as the battery is good a 1hr run will likely allow the car to start again.

How long do you run your car after a a car jump?
I assume you mean how long to charge the battery. You should never let the alternator charge a dead battery if possible.

Drive home and then put a battery charger on the battery to fully charge it.
