What does femtomol per second measure?

Femtomol per second quantifies the amount of substance flux at extremely small scales, such as secretion or uptake rates from small cell populations.

Where is centimol per second commonly used?

Centimol per second is used in chemical engineering and kinetics to measure molar throughput and perform mass-balance calculations.

Why might converted values be difficult to interpret?

Because the scale difference is huge, converted values become very small decimals requiring high-precision tools for meaningful measurement.
