Converting from Cubic Nanometer (nm³) to Drop, Imperial (gtt)

What is Cubic Nanometer (nm³)

A cubic nanometer (nm³) is a unit of volume that represents a cube with sides measuring one nanometer (1 nm) in length. To give you a sense of scale, a nanometer is one billionth of a meter (1 nm = 1*10^-9 m). Cubic nanometers are commonly used in fields such as nanotechnology and molecular biology, where measurements involve particles or structures at the atomic or molecular level.

What is Drop, Imperial (gtt)

The drop (gtt) is a unit of volume commonly used in medicine and cooking. The imperial drop is defined as approximately 1/20 of a milliliter (mL). This means that 20 drops make up 1 mL. Drops are often used to measure liquid medications and ingredients in recipes, providing a practical and easy way to dispense small volumes of liquid.

Conversion Formulas

To convert between cubic nanometers and imperial drops, the following formulas are used:

• To convert from cubic nanometers to drops:

  gtt=nm3×1.013618×10−20

• To convert from drops to cubic nanometers:

  nm3=gtt×9.865647×1019

Examples

1. Converting 6 nm³ to gtt: Using the formula:

   gtt=6nm3×1.013618×10−20≈0.0000000000000000000608171gtt

2. Converting 14 nm³ to gtt: Using the formula:

   gtt=14nm3×1.013618×10−20≈0.0000000000000000001419066gtt

3. Converting 15 gtt to nm³: Using the formula:

   nm3=15gtt×9.865647×1019≈1.479847×1021nm3

4. Converting 6 gtt to nm³: Using the formula:

   nm3=6gtt×9.865647×1019≈5.919388×1021nm3

These conversions highlight the vast difference in magnitude between the two units. As you can see, a single drop (gtt) contains an extremely large number of cubic nanometers, illustrating just how small a cubic nanometer truly is compared to even a modest volume used in everyday tasks.
