What is the correlation between the BTU of an air conditioner and the size of the area you wish to cool?
It depends on how many people and how many windows are in the home. As a rough rule of thumb, every 500sq ft needs 1 ton. In lower humidity areas, that can be dropped back some.
There is no correlation. The cooling capacity of the ac unit (btu) should be matched to the heat gain or load of the space to be cooled. Not by rules of thumb estimating load by size. Two spaces of equal size can certainly have differing loads, thus requiring different tonnage.

Can an air conditioner effectively heat a room?

Why can't an air conditioner cool a room?
An air conditioner can cool a room by removing heat from the air and releasing it outside.

Regular maintenance and proper installation are essential for the optimal performance of an air conditioner.

It's best to consult with an HVAC professional to determine the appropriate size for your space.
How much area does a portable air conditioning unit keep cool?
The size of the area that a portable air conditioner will keep cool varies depending upon the number of BTU's the unit has. For example, a 12000 BTU air conditioner will cool an area between about 500-600 square feet while a 8000 BTU air conditioner will cool an area of approximately 300-350 square feet.
What are the differences between an air conditioner and a swamp cooler, and which one would be more suitable for cooling a specific area?
An air conditioner uses refrigerant to cool and dehumidify air, while a swamp cooler uses water to cool air through evaporation. Air conditioners are more effective in hot and humid climates, while swamp coolers work best in hot and dry climates. The choice between the two depends on the climate and humidity levels of the specific area you want to cool.
What is the maximum square footage that a 9000 BTU mini split air conditioner can effectively cool?
A 9000 BTU mini split air conditioner can effectively cool an area of up to 350-400 square feet.
