Conversação is more used in the sense of having a oral practice in a targeted language
Conversa is any type of debate, conversation, chat
Chat pode ser " conversa, bate-papo, papo, prosa "
To chat: " conversar, bater papo, papear e prosear (these last two being very informal) '

Yes, both of them can be translated into conversation. Most of the time we prefer to use the word "conversa". "Conversação" sounds very formal, we would only use it, for example, in language classes. e.g.: I have a Speaking class right now. "Eu tenho uma aula de conversação agora".

I would translate like this:
uma conversa - a talk
conversação - conversation
Actually they mean the same.
