You need to know the power factor, the phase angle, or the KVA in order to determine KVAR from KW.

Power factor is the cosine of the phase angle between voltage and current, and is also the ratio of KW over KVA.

Once you know one of those other things, you simply consider that reactive power factor is the sine of the phase angle between voltage and current, and is also the ratio of KVAR or KVA.

It is simple arithmetic from there. You don't even need trigonometry, as I've already given you the ratios.

What is the kvar value for 2.5 horse power single phase motor of 230 volts 60 hertz?

The electrical power drawn would be about 2.5 HP with 15% added for losses, which is 2.5x746x1.15 or 2100 watts, and the power factor might be 0.85 so the total VA would be 2145/0.85 or 2500 VA. Use this formula: VA-squared = Watts-squared + VAR-squared or VAR-squared = VA-squared - Watts-squared so the answer is 1.3 kVAR.

Can you put a larger size capacitor on your air conditioner?

You might be able to but why you would want to is questionable. A capacitor could be used in air-con for two reasons. First to start the pump motor if it is a single-phase induction motor. Secondly, as a power-factor corrector. In both cases the two capacitors have probably been correctly selected and there is no point in using a different one. A replacement capacitor should have the correct voltage rating and the correct VAR rating (or the right capacitance in microfarads).
