What does mol/minute measure?

Mol/minute measures the amount of substance in moles passing a point per minute, often used in chemical processes and lab flow control.

When should I use petamol/second?

Petamol/second is suitable for expressing extremely large molar flow rates, such as those in astrophysics or very high-throughput industrial processes.

Why is the conversion factor so small?

Because petamol/second involves 10^15 moles per second, a mol/minute corresponds to a very tiny fraction of that scale, resulting in a very small conversion factor.

Limitations

This conversion is meaningful only for comparing exceptionally large molar flow rates.
Typical lab or pilot plant molar flows are much smaller and impractical to express in petamol/second.
Potential precision limitations may arise from floating-point representation with extremely small conversion factors.
