How to Convert Faradays to Coulombs
To convert from faradays (F) to coulombs (C), you multiply the charge in faradays by 96,485.3321, which is the value of the Faraday constant. For more information about faradays as a unit of measurement, visit our faradays page.
Formula
Coulombs = Faradays × 96,485.3321
or
C = F × 96,485.3321
Examples
- 1 F = 1 × 96,485.3321 = 96,485.3321 C
- 0.00001 F = 0.00001 × 96,485.3321 = 0.964853321 C
- 0.0001 F = 0.0001 × 96,485.3321 = 9.64853321 C
- 0.001 F = 0.001 × 96,485.3321 = 96.4853321 C
When to Convert Faradays to Coulombs
This conversion is primarily used in electrochemistry and related fields, especially when dealing with electrochemical reactions and stoichiometry.
Electrochemistry
In electrochemistry, the Faraday constant relates the amount of electric charge to the number of moles of electrons involved in a reaction.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a faraday (F)?
A faraday is a unit of electric charge equal to the magnitude of charge of one mole of electrons, approximately 96,485.3321 coulombs. It is named after Michael Faraday.
What is a coulomb (C)?
The coulomb is the SI unit of electric charge, defined as the amount of charge transported by a constant current of one ampere in one second.
How do I convert coulombs to faradays?
To convert from coulombs to faradays, you divide the charge in coulombs by 96,485.3321. For example, 96,485.3321 C is equal to 96,485.3321 / 96,485.3321 = 1 F.
