This is not standardized across Ada compilers. Here are some
conventions that different compilers use:
GNAT spec = *.ads, body = *.adb
Rational spec = *.1.ada, body = *.2.ada
VADS spec = *_.a, body = *.a
Aonix any of the above are OK; another is:
spec = *.spc, body = *.bdy
Green Hills <same as Aonix>
Given the easy availability of GNAT, I suspect that *.ads/*.adb is the
most widely used convention at this point.

It's not standardized at the language level. Probably *.ads/*.adb is
the safest choice these days.
