Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does mol/hour measure?
-
Mol/hour quantifies the amount of substance in moles passing a point or processed per hour, commonly used in chemical engineering and lab settings.
-
When should I use decimol/second?
-
Decimol/second is useful for expressing small-scale molar flows over short time intervals, especially in precise laboratory and pharmaceutical contexts.
-
Does this conversion apply to transient flow conditions?
-
No, the conversion assumes steady flow and does not account for transient changes in molar flow rates.
Key Terminology
-
Mol/hour [mol/h]
-
A unit measuring the amount of substance in moles passing a point or reacting per hour.
-
Decimol/second [dmol/s]
-
A unit expressing the molar flow rate as one decimole (0.1 mole) per second.
-
Molar Flow Rate
-
The quantity of substance passing through a point or system per unit time, measured in moles.
