How Big is a Nanometer?

This lab, presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, covers the concept of measurement on the nanoscale. Through this exercise, students will learn about "state the size of a nanometer, convert between nanometers and other metric units of length, and give concrete examples of nanotechnology use in everyday life." "How Big is a Nano", a two-part Student Guide, "Scale of Things" are included.
