To convert 100 nanometer to centimeter, multiply by 0.0000001. 100 multiplied by 0.0000001 equals 0.00001 centimeter. For practical purposes, this is often rounded to 0.0000 centimeter.

100 nanometer equals exactly 0.000010 centimeter. For practical purposes, this is often rounded to 0.0000 centimeter.

Objects measuring approximately 100 nanometer include 100 nanometer diameter gold nanoparticles, 100 nanometer polystyrene latex spheres for microscopy calibration, and 100 nanometer engineered titanium dioxide nanoparticles in sunscreens.

Converting nanometer to centimeter is useful for bridging scales in scientific research, comparing nanoscale features to macroscopic designs in engineering, and ensuring compliance with international measurement standards in manufacturing and quality control.

To remember the conversion, think of nanometer as 10 to the power of minus 7 centimeter. So, 100 nanometer is 100 times 10 to the power of minus 7, which simplifies to 10 to the power of minus 5 centimeter, or 0.00001 centimeter. Visualize moving the decimal point five places to the left from 1 centimeter to reach 0.00001 centimeter.
