How to convert coulombs to picocoulombs
To convert coulombs (C) to picocoulombs (pC), multiply the value by 1,000,000,000,000 (10¹²).
pC = C × 1,000,000,000,000
One coulomb equals one trillion picocoulombs. The picocoulomb is used for very small charges, such as in electronics and capacitors.
Example: Convert 0.000001 C to pC:
0.000001 × 1,000,000,000,000 = 1,000,000 pC

How this calculator works
The form on this page is a Coulombs-to-Picocoulombs converter. After you enter a number, JavaScript multiplies or rearranges it with the published conversion factor and writes the pC result in the output box. The step-by-step panel repeats the arithmetic so you can copy it into homework or a spreadsheet.
