Convert Picomoles per minute (pmol/min) to Moles per second (mol/s) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
mol/s = pmol/min × 1.666666667e-14
About Picomoles per minute
The picomole per minute (pmol/min) equals 10⁻¹²/60 ≈ 1.667×10⁻¹⁴ mol/s, the working unit for radioligand binding assays and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor chip experiments in pharmacology. Receptor-saturation kinetics studies and piezoelectric microbalance flow-cell experiments are analysed in pmol/min. 1 pmol/min ≈ 1.667×10⁻¹⁴ 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.
