Convert Moles per minute to Micromoles per second
Convert Moles per minute (mol/min) to Micromoles per second (µmol/s) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
µmol/s = mol/min × 16666.66667
About Moles per minute
The mole per minute (mol/min) equals 1/60 mol/s ≈ 0.01667 mol/s, used in process development when studying batch-to-continuous reaction scale-up. A semi-batch neutralisation reactor discharging at 60 mmol/s corresponds to 3.6 mol/min of acid added; microwave-assisted flow reactors for fine-chemical synthesis operate at similar rates. 1 mol/min = 1/60 mol/s = 60 mol/h.
About Micromoles per second
The micromole per second (µmol/s) equals 10⁻⁶ mol/s and is numerically equal to the katal (kat) - the SI unit of catalytic activity. One katal of enzyme converts exactly 1 µmol of substrate per second; preparative HPLC columns and benchtop continuous-flow synthesis reactors commonly operate at µmol/s throughput. 1 µmol/s = 1 µkat = 10⁻⁶ mol/s = 60 µmol/min.
