Which is equal to 1,000,000 picofarads?

The correct answer is 1 microfarad, which directly corresponds to 1,000,000 picofarads. To understand this, it’s helpful to grasp the relationships between different units of capacitance.

1 microfarad (µF) is equal to 1,000,000 picofarads (pF). This is because:

• 1 microfarad equals 1,000 nanofarads (nF)

• 1 nanofarad equals 1,000 picofarads

So, when you convert microfarads to picofarads:

1 µF = 1,000 nF x 1,000 pF/nF = 1,000,000 pF.

This shows that 1 microfarad is indeed equal to 1,000,000 picofarads.

Understanding this relationship is crucial for working with capacitors in electronic circuits, where capacitance values are often expressed in different units and conversions might be necessary.
