I believe you mean "crotchet" which is a British musical term for quarter note. In 4/4 (common) time it receives one beat.
quaver = eighth note; semi-quaver = sixteenth note.
minims = half notes (two crochets); semibreves = whole-notes (four crotchets)

Fyi, in music, rests are worth as much as the correlating note. So if in 4/4 time, crotchet notes are worth 1 beat, and so are crotchet rests.
If you are in 4/4 time/ common time, a dotted crotchet rest (or quarter rest) is worth one and a half beats.
A dot adds half of the note or rest's origional value. So if a crotchet rest/quarter rest is worth one beat, the dotted crotchet rest/ quarter rest is worth one and a half (1.5) beats.
But be careful! If you are not in 4/4 time, the number of beats it is worth (but not the value when compared to other notes) will probably change!
A crotchet represents one beat, but the composer sets the length of that beat, whether it is slow or fast.
There is one beat. A crotchet (whether it is a note or a rest) always lasts for one beat (providing the time signature is crotchet-based).

It's called a dotted minum

Like any other note, how many beats it is worth depends entirely on the time signature. But it is equivalent to a half note. The bottom number of the time signature indicates which note equals one beat. In 4/4 time, a quarter note gets one beat, so a minim would be equal to 2 beats. In 2/2 time (or 4/2, or anything else with a 2 on the bottom), a half note is one beat, so also a minim would be one beat.
