How to Convert Chain to Bohr Radius
1 ch = 380152425038.717 a.u.
Example: convert 15 ch to a.u.:
15 ch = 15 × 380152425038.717 a.u. = 5702286375580.75 a.u.
Chain to Bohr Radius Conversion Table
| chain | Bohr radius |

Chain
A chain is a unit of length equal to 66 feet, or 22 yards.
History/Origin
The chain was developed by English surveyor Edmund Gunter in the early 17th century. It was designed to be a convenient length for surveying land.
Current Use
The chain is still used in some surveying applications and is the length of a cricket pitch.
Bohr Radius
The Bohr radius is the most probable distance between the proton and the electron in a hydrogen atom in its ground state, approximately 5.29 x 10⁻¹¹ meters.
History/Origin
The Bohr radius is named after Niels Bohr, who proposed a model of the atom in 1913. It is the atomic unit of length.
Current Use
The Bohr radius is a fundamental constant in atomic physics and is used to simplify calculations and equations.
