What does picomol per second represent?

Picomol per second is a unit of molar flow that represents 10^-12 moles passing a point each second, commonly used for very small chemical or biochemical flow rates.

Where is dekamol per second commonly used?

Dekamol per second measures molar flow at 10 moles per second and is typically used in chemical engineering for reactor feeds and industrial gas production.

Why should I be cautious converting between pmol/s and damol/s?

Because of the huge difference in scale, conversions yield extremely small numbers that can suffer from rounding errors and may not have direct practical equivalence.
