What Is This Tool?
This converter facilitates the transformation of flow molar units from centimol per second to attomol per second. It helps users express low molar flow rates in much smaller units essential for sensitive measurements in chemical engineering, microreactors, and nanofluidic systems.
How to Use This Tool?
-
Enter the molar flow value in centimol per second [cmol/s].
-
Select centimol/second as the input unit and attomol/second as the output unit.
-
Click the convert button to display the equivalent flow rate in attomol per second [amol/s].
Key Features
-
Converts flow molar rates from cmol/s to amol/s accurately.
-

Such small-scale flow measurements may not apply to bulk or industrial-scale contexts.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does centimol per second measure?
-
Centimol per second measures molar flow rate equal to 0.01 moles per second, quantifying substance amount passing through a point over time.
-
Where is attomol per second used?
-
Attomol per second is used to quantify extremely low molar flow rates in microfluidic systems, single-molecule experiments, and ultra-trace analytical measurements.
-
Why convert cmol/s to amol/s?
-
Converting to attomol per second allows expressing very low molar flow rates in smaller units, enabling precise quantification at micro- and nanoscale levels.
Key Terminology
