What is an arpent used for?

An arpent is a historical French unit of length primarily used for measuring land frontages and parcel dimensions, especially in colonial Quebec and Louisiana.

What does the classical electron radius represent?

It is a derived length scale in physics that characterizes a scattering length and relates to the classical electrostatic self-energy of an electron.

Is this conversion applicable in everyday measurement?

No, due to the extreme difference in scale and historical variability, this conversion is mostly theoretical and relevant for academic or educational purposes.
