To liters: multiply by 10⁻¹². To nanoliters: divide by 1,000. To femtoliters: multiply by 1,000.
1 pL = 10⁻¹² L = 10⁻⁹ mL = 1,000 fL = 10⁻⁶ µL. One nanoliter = 1,000 pL.
For example, 1 Picoliter (pL) = 1.000000e-30 Exaliter (EL).

The picoliter is a unit of volume equal to 10⁻¹² liters, or one trillionth of a liter.
1 pL = 10⁻¹² L = 10⁻⁹ mL = 1,000 fL = 10⁻⁶ µL. One nanoliter = 1,000 pL.
To liters: multiply by 10⁻¹². To nanoliters: divide by 1,000. To femtoliters: multiply by 1,000.
Inkjet printer droplet volumes (1–80 pL), PCR reaction miniaturization, and micro-array spotting.
A standard inkjet printer deposits droplets of 1–10 pL. Some advanced printers use 1.5 pL droplets for high-resolution photos.
Confusing pL with µL (microliter) — there are one million pL in a single µL.
Picoliter is the realm of inkjet drops and micro-fluidic reactions. 1 pL = a cube about 10 µm on a side — cell-sized.
The exaliter is a unit of volume equal to 10¹⁸ liters, or one million cubic kilometers.
1 EL = 10¹⁸ L = 10¹⁵ m³ = 10⁶ km³ = 1,000 PL.
To liters: multiply by 10¹⁸. To km³: multiply by 10⁶. To petaliters: multiply by 1,000.
No practical applications — this scale exists only for astronomical and theoretical comparisons.
All the water on Earth (oceans, ice, groundwater, lakes, rivers, atmosphere) totals about 1.386 EL.
Almost never encountered, so mistakes are rare. The main risk is confusion with other 'E' prefixes (e.g., eV in energy).
Think of the exaliter as the 'planet volume' unit. Earth's oceans ≈ 1.335 EL. Prefix: exa = 10¹⁸ = quintillion.
