Formula
nC = mC × 1000000
Multiply any value in millicoulombs by 1000000 to obtain the value in nanocoulombs.
Worked example
Convert 1 mC to nC.
- 01Start with 1 mC.
- 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1 × 1000000 = 1.00000e+6 nC.
Result1 mC = 1.00000e+6 nC

FAQ
What is the conversion factor from mC to nC?
1 mC equals 1000000 nC. To convert, multiply the value in millicoulombs by 1000000.
How do I convert 1 mC to nC?
1 mC = 1.00000e+6 nC. For any value, multiply by 1000000.
How do I convert nC back to mC?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 1e-6. So 1 nC = 1e-6 mC.
When would I need to convert millicoulomb to nanocoulomb?
Electric-charge conversions between mC and nC appear in battery capacity specification (A·h, mA·h), electroplating and electrochemistry (coulombs of charge transferred), and capacitor energy calculations. 1 A·h is exactly 3600 C — the conversion is a linear factor and does not depend on voltage, current profile or chemistry.
Is the conversion exact?
The factor shown is precise to at least 7 significant figures. For most process-engineering work this is far better than instrument accuracy. For metrology or trade applications, refer to the relevant national standard (NIST, BIPM, ISO 80000).
