How do you know the size of aquarium heaters?

When I bought my 55gal aquarium off of craigslist it came with a small aquarium heater. I want to use it on my 10 gallon aquarium--because it seems like it's for 5-10 gallon aquariums, but I'm not sure. Is there any way to tell what size aquarium is the heater for?
I don't know how to tell watts.
I don't know the brand.
I bought it from a real poor guy--they had to sell it. It is a nice heater, but is not made for a 55gal I'm sure.
How many watts? Brand?
~Without knowing wattage or brand it’s impossible for me to tell you if it is appropriate for a ten gallon aquarium.
How long is it?
5 watts per gallon
will heat the water fast and keep it at a stable temp
wattage should be printed on the side of the heater, or on a peice of paper just inside the glass housing
