How to convert kilometers to picometers
1 kilometer is equal to 1 × 10¹⁵ picometers, and 1 picometer is equal to 1 × 10⁻¹⁵ kilometers. To convert, multiply by the conversion factor:
picometers = kilometers × 1 × 10¹⁵
picometers = kilometers ÷ 1 × 10⁻¹⁵Example: convert 1 km to pm: 1 × 1 × 10¹⁵ = 1 × 10¹⁵ pm.

About the kilometer
A kilometer is 1,000 meters. It's the standard unit for distances between places, road signs and running races in most countries.
Symbol: km · 1 km = 1,000 m · Category: Metric (SI)
About the picometer
A picometer is 10⁻¹² meters. It's used for atomic and ionic radii and bond lengths; a hydrogen atom is about 50 pm across.
Symbol: pm · 1 pm = 1 × 10⁻¹² m · Category: Metric (SI)
