What are the notes/ fingerings for these arpeggios on piano?

Q. What are the notes for C major C minor G major F major A minor D minor? Please help by telling me the notes or directing me to a website about piano chords, arpeggios or broken chords.

A. Arpeggios , as I'm sure you know are the notes of a chord played consecutively rather than together. So for C major you would play (going up the scale)
C E G C,
then back down the scale.
C minor
C Dsharp F
G major
G B D
F major
F A C
A minor
A C E
D minor
D F A
The fingerings for arpeggios are (right hand) thumb, 3rd finger, little finger 3rd finger, thumb.
or thumb, 3rd finger, thumb little finger, thumb, 3rd finger thumb.
Here are some useful sites (be sure to look at other pages than the ones directly linked.)

Original Question

how long do will it probably take to play the piano?
Q. I know what I'm asking sounds weird but this is wat i mean. I started playing the clarinet 2 years ago and the piano and clarinet are pretty similar instruments. this year i started playing piano and the difference I find is piano has chords, different fingerings (of course), bass clef, and intervals. Since I already have experience playing a similar instrument will take me up to 10 years or less?
Thx!

A. If you already know how to read music, to be able to complete a basic song, you could easily do in a year-if you practice. As for learning advanced classical songs, you would be a very talented pianist in 10 years. Of course all of this is with constant practice and lessons to improve technique.

Original Question

How do you play songs that are composed of chords on piano?
Q. I played piano for about 10 years now, and I only know how to play normal songs with notes. I've been seeing piano pieces with chords such as Em, C, G but, I have no clue how to play them. Does anyone know or have a tutorial that can show me how to play chords?

A. Use this website to show you the fingerings for chords: http://www.hearandplay.com/virtualpiano.html

Also, I just want to mention that guitar typically JUST plays chords. So really it is not surprising that someone who only has a year behind them on guitar would know chords because that is what they learn.

Chords become pretty easy to get used to and they obviously follow a sort of pattern that will become natural.

Good luck!
