Convert Picomoles per hour to Moles per second
Convert Picomoles per hour (pmol/h) to Moles per second (mol/s) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
mol/s = pmol/h × 2.777777778e-16
About Picomoles per hour
The picomole per hour (pmol/h) equals 10⁻¹²/3600 ≈ 2.778×10⁻¹⁶ mol/s, used in dermal permeability studies and slow-release pharmaceutical patch bioavailability tests. Passive diffusion of steroid hormones through biological membranes is quantified at pmol/h per cm² of membrane area. 1 pmol/h ≈ 2.778×10⁻¹⁶ mol/s.
About Moles per second
The mole per second (mol/s) is the SI coherent derived unit of molar flow rate, numerically equal to the katal (kat) for catalytic activity contexts. Industrial ammonia synthesis (Haber-Bosch) produces ≈50 mol/s of NH₃ per tonne/h output; a large turbine combustion chamber burns natural gas at ≈500 mol/s of CH₄. It is the reference unit in process simulation mass balances. 1 mol/s = 3 600 mol/h = 60 mol/min.
