About Converting Femtomoles to Nanomoles
Femtomole and Nanomole both measure mass concentration — how much of a substance is dissolved or dispersed in a given volume — a core calculation for preparing lab solutions, checking water quality against a regulatory limit, or formulating a pharmaceutical dose. Specifically: Femtomole is 1e-15 mole units, and nanomole is 1e-9 mole units.
Formula
nanomoles = femtomoles × 0.000001
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 femtomole equals 1e-15 base units, and 1 nanomole equals 1e-9 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct femtomole-to-nanomole factor of 0.000001.
Simple example
1 fmol × 0.000001 = 0.000001 nmol
1 femtomole = 0.000001 nanomoles.
Real-world example
100 fmol × 0.000001 = 0.0001 nmol
100 femtomoles = 0.0001 nanomoles.

Reverse conversion: Nanomole to Femtomole
0.000001 nmol × 1000000 = 1 fmol
0.000001 nanomoles = 1 femtomole.
femtomoles = nanomoles × 1000000

Frequently asked questions
How many nanomoles are in 1 femtomole?
1 femtomole equals 0.000001 nanomoles, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert femtomole to nanomole?
Multiply the femtomole value by 0.000001. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert nanomole back to femtomole?
Use the reverse factor: 1 nanomole equals 1,000,000 femtomoles. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a femtomole?
Femtomole (fmol) is a unit of chemistry.
What is a nanomole?
Nanomole (nmol) is a unit of chemistry.
Is the femtomole to nanomole conversion exact?
Yes. Both femtomole and nanomole are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.000001 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
What's the difference between mass concentration and molarity?
Mass concentration expresses how much mass of a substance is present per unit volume (for example, grams per liter). Molarity expresses the amount in moles per liter instead, which accounts for the substance's molecular weight. This category converts mass-concentration units.
