Result in Nanocoulombs:

1 C = 1,000,000,000 nC

How to Convert Coulombs to Nanocoulombs

To convert a measurement in coulombs to a measurement in nanocoulombs, multiply the electric charge by the following conversion ratio: 1,000,000,000 nanocoulombs/coulomb.

Since one coulomb is equal to 1,000,000,000 nanocoulombs, you can use this simple formula to convert:

nanocoulombs = coulombs × 1,000,000,000

The electric charge in nanocoulombs is equal to the electric charge in coulombs multiplied by 1,000,000,000.

For example, here's how to convert 5 coulombs to nanocoulombs using the formula above.

nanocoulombs = (5 C × 1,000,000,000) = 5,000,000,000 nC

How Many Nanocoulombs Are in a Coulomb?

There are 1,000,000,000 nanocoulombs in a coulomb, which is why we use this value in the formula above.

1 C = 1,000,000,000 nC

Coulombs and nanocoulombs are both units used to measure electric charge. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

What Is a Coulomb?

One coulomb is the electric charge equal to one ampere of current over one second.^[1]

The coulomb can be expressed as Q_C = I_A × t_s

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.

What Is a Nanocoulomb?

The nanocoulomb is 1/1,000,000,000 of a coulomb, which is the electric charge equal to one ampere of current over one second.

The nanocoulomb is a multiple of the coulomb, which is the SI derived unit for electric charge. In the metric system, "nano" is the prefix for billionths, or 10^-9. Nanocoulombs can be abbreviated as nC; for example, 1 nanocoulomb can be written as 1 nC.
