Standard bath is taken to be 20 gallons at 8.35 pounds per gallon and 60 degrees F of heating = 10,000 BTU per bath in round numbers, assuming 100% efficiency water heating.

A 2.5 ton A/c is the same as 30,000 BTU's 1 ton = 12,000 BTU's
Yes, usually. 100 watts equates to about 341.21 BTU per hour.
The amount of BTU's per square foot varies. The BTU's per ft2 in my area is 30-35. In your area there might be more or less. For reference sake... Btu's are not used in Metric settings, Joules are used. 1 btu = 11356 joule Contact a HVAC tech in your area. They can tell you the recommended BTU or JOULE rating for your area with the use of a manual known as a "J manual" +++ To be proper, BTU should be all capitals as in the first sentence, though correct abbreviations are very awkward to use in many Microsoft applications!
Heating units are not measured in tons as AC units are. Heating capacity is referred to in 1000`s of btu output per hour of operation. The ratio of input vs output = the efficiency rating, for example if your home furnace is rated at 100,000 btu per hour input and 80,000 btu per hour output . it is 80% efficient (when it was new). For AC 12.000 btu = 1 ton.
1 ton = rate of heat absorption to melt 1 ton of ice in 24 hours =12,000 BTU per hour = 3,516 watts.
