I had backed up my IPhone 4s on iCloud on Jan 19. I am now trying to do another back up but it says the time required is 7 hours. It appears to long a time for 1GB of data stored on the iCloud. Can someone help me please?

To be honest, that sounds about right.
For example on my 8Mbps (megbits) down service I get around 0.4Mbps upload.  That is the equivalent of (very approximately) 3Mb (megabytes) per minute or 180Mb per hour.  Over 7 hours that would be just over 1Gb.
Obviously, it all depends on your connection speed, but that is certainly what I would expect, and that is why I use my computer for backing up, not iCloud.  So much quicker.
