Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does petamol per second (Pmol/s) measure?
-
Petamol per second measures the amount of substance flow at 10^15 moles passing a reference point each second, used for extremely large molar flow rates.
-
Why convert petamol/second to dekamol/second?
-
Converting allows translation of very large-scale molar flows into more practical units used in chemical engineering and process calculations.
-
Can this converter be used for everyday chemical process measurements?
-
No, because petamol scales represent extremely large flows rarely encountered in typical chemical processes.
Key Terminology
