Not suitable for everyday or small-scale chemical process measurements.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does petamol per second measure?
-
Petamol per second measures molar flow rate as the amount of substance passing a point each second, equal to 10^15 moles per second.
-
When should I use hectomol per second?
-
Hectomol per second is used to express high-rate throughput in chemical processes and is equivalent to 100 moles per second.
-
Why convert from petamol/second to hectomol/second?
-
This conversion simplifies extremely large molar flow values for industrial and engineering calculations, making them more manageable.
