What does femtomol per second measure?

Femtomol per second measures the molar flow rate corresponding to 1×10⁻¹⁵ moles of a substance transferred, produced, or consumed every second, typically used at very small scales in chemical and biological systems.

Why convert femtomol/second to kilomol/hour?

Converting femtomol/second to kilomol/hour helps scale extremely small biochemical or microfluidic flow rates to larger industrial units for process design, reporting, or material balance calculations.

Can I convert kilomol/hour to mass flow units directly?

To convert kilomol/hour to mass flow units like kilograms per hour, you must multiply by the species-specific molar mass (kg/kmol).
