Nanometer (nm). A nanometer is one billionth of a meter, used for wavelengths of light and the size of molecules.
Chain (ch). A chain is 66 feet (20.1168 m), a surveying unit; 80 chains make one mile.
There are 4.97097 × 10⁻¹¹ chains in one nanometer.
Multiply the number of nanometers by 4.97097 × 10⁻¹¹. For example, 10 nanometers equal 4.97097 × 10⁻¹⁰ chains.
One chain equals 20,116,800,000 nanometers.
4.97097 × 10⁻⁸ chains. Other common values: 100 nanometers = 4.97097 × 10⁻⁹ chains and 10,000 nanometers = 4.97097 × 10⁻⁷ chains.
