That all depends on the quality of the chain and how well its maintained... cheap, non-O-ring chains wear quicker and stretch more... high quality name brand X ring chains properly maintained can easily have 5 times the life or more.
As far as sprockets.. its much the same... worn chains accelerate wear on sprockets..
Here is a good writeup with pictures
