Picometer (pm) — SI unit equal to one trillionth of a meter
Used to express atomic and subatomic dimensions such as bond lengths and ionic/atomic radii in chemistry and materials science
- Symbol: pm
- System: SI derived unit
- Exact relations: 1 pm = 10⁻¹² m = 0.001 nm = 10⁻⁶ µm = 0.01 Å = 1,000 fm
- Imperial/US equivalents: 1 pm ≈ 0.00000000003937007874 in
- Typical examples: covalent bond lengths ~100–200 pm; Bohr radius of hydrogen ~53 pm; atomic radii tens to a few hundred pm
Link - traditional surveying length unit
Link is a historical unit used in land surveying as 1/100 of a Gunter’s chain. Used on cadastral maps, field books, and deeds throughout the English-speaking world.
- Symbols: l, lk, or lnk (varies)
- System: Imperial/US customary (historic surveying)
- Exact relations: 1 link = 1/100 chain = 1/25 rod = 0.66 ft = 7.92 in
- Metric equivalents: 1 link = 0.201168 m (exact); 100 links = 20.1168 m (1 chain)
- Typical examples: parcel frontage like “12 ch 37 lks”; old plats listing sides in chains and links
