Coulombs to Picocoulombs Conversion
Enter the electric charge in coulombs below to get the value converted to picocoulombs.
How to Convert Coulombs to Picocoulombs
To convert a coulomb measurement to a picocoulomb measurement, multiply the electric charge by the conversion ratio.
Since one coulomb is equal to 1,000,000,000,000 picocoulombs, you can use this simple formula to convert:
The electric charge in picocoulombs is equal to the coulombs multiplied by 1,000,000,000,000.
How Many Picocoulombs are in a Coulomb?
There are 1,000,000,000,000 picocoulombs in a coulomb, which is why we use this value in the formula above.
1 C = 1,000,000,000,000 pC
Coulombs and picocoulombs are both units used to measure electric charge. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.
Coulombs
One coulomb is the electric charge equal to one ampere of current over one second.[1]
The coulomb can be expressed as QC = IA × ts
The charge in coulombs is equal to the current in amperes times the time in seconds.
The coulomb is the SI derived unit for electric charge in the metric system. Coulombs can be abbreviated as C; for example, 1 coulomb can be written as 1 C.
Picocoulombs
The picocoulomb is 1/1,000,000,000,000 of a coulomb, which is the electric charge equal to one ampere of current over one second.
The picocoulomb is a multiple of the coulomb, which is the SI derived unit for electric charge. In the metric system, "pico" is the prefix for 10-12. Picocoulombs can be abbreviated as pC; for example, 1 picocoulomb can be written as 1 pC.
