Square centimeter to square nanometer converter (cm2 to nm2)

Conversion Formula

1 cm2 = 100,000,000,000,000 nm2

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 Square Centimeter = 1.00e-4 square meters
   1 Square Nanometer = 1.00e-18 square meters
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 cm2 = (1.00e-4 m²) / (1.00e-18 m²/nm2) = 100,000,000,000,000 nm2
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in cm2 by 100,000,000,000,000 to get the equivalent in nm2

Example Conversion

Convert 5 cm2 to nm2:

5 cm2 × 100,000,000,000,000 = 500,000,000,000,000 nm2
