How to Convert Mol/minute to Mol/second

Converting Mol/minute (mol/min) to Mol/second (mol/s) is a core calculation in Molar Flow Rate, which measures the chemical amount of substance (in moles) flowing through a boundary per unit of time. Because Mol/second is a broader physical scale than Mol/minute, converting from mol/min to mol/s condenses the numerical figure. It takes 60 Mol/minute to equal a single Mol/second (1 mol/min = 0.0166667 mol/s). To convert any quantity, multiply by 0.0166667 (or divide by 60).

Mathematical Conversion Derivation via Coherent SI Base Unit

Under the International System of Quantities (ISQ), dimensional conversion between non-SI units is rigorously resolved by bridging through the coherent SI base unit (mole per second (mol/s)) without arbitrary rounding:

Vtarget=Vsource×(ksource→SIktarget→SI)V_{\text{target}} = V_{\text{source}} \times \left( \frac{k_{\text{source} \to \text{SI}}}{k_{\text{target} \to \text{SI}}} \right)
Universal Dimensional Conversion Law (ISO 80000 / NIST SP 811)
1. Source SI Bridge (ksource):1 mol/min = 0.0166667 mole per second (mol/s)
2. Target SI Bridge (ktarget):1 mol/s = 1 mole per second (mol/s)
Step-by-step substitution for Mol/minute → Mol/second:V(mol/s) = V(mol/min) × ( 0.0166667 / 1 ) = V(mol/min) × 0.0166667
Mathematical FormulaValue in Mol/second = Value in Mol/minute × 0.016666667Direct computational formula applied for standard conversion.
Worked Example

For an engineering input of 75 mol/min, applying the conversion factor yields exactly 1.25 mol/s. At larger operational scale, 480 Mol/minute corresponds to 8 mol/s.

Inverse check: 1 mol/s = 60 mol/min.
