FAQ
What is the conversion factor from frac to ppt?
1 frac equals 1e+12 ppt. To convert, multiply the value in fractions (dimensionless ratio) by 1e+12.
How do I convert 1 frac to ppt?
1 frac = 1e+12 ppt. For any value, multiply by 1e+12.
How do I convert ppt back to frac?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 1e-12. So 1 ppt = 1e-12 frac.
When would I need to convert fraction (dimensionless ratio) to parts per trillion (10⁻¹²)?
Concentration-ratio conversions between frac and ppt are used in trace-analysis, gas-composition work, environmental reporting and process-chemistry datasheets. These conversions are dimensionless: they do NOT cover mg/L, g/L, mol/L, normality, equivalents, mass-percent, volume-percent, ppmw or ppmv — those require solution density and/or molecular weight. Note: ppt here means parts per trillion (10⁻¹²), not parts per thousand.
Is the conversion exact?
Yes. Both frac and ppt are defined by exact SI relationships, so the displayed factor is exact (any rounding shown is only for display).
