How to Convert Picoliters to Gallons
To convert picoliters to gallons, multiply the volume by the following conversion ratio: 2.199692e-13 gallons/picoliter.
Since one picoliter is equal to 2.199692e-13 gallons, you can use this simple formula to convert:
The volume in gallons is equal to the volume in picoliters multiplied by 2.199692e-13.
For example, here's how to convert 5 picoliters to gallons using the formula above.
How Many Gallons Are in a Picoliter?
There are 2.199692e-13 gallons in a picoliter, which is why we use this value in the formula above.

What Is a Picoliter?
A picoliter is a unit of volume equal to 1/1,000,000,000,000 of a liter (1e-12 L). One-trillionth of a liter (10⁻¹² L). [1]
The picoliter is classified as a metric and SI-compatible unit of volume. Picoliters can be abbreviated as pL; for example, 1 picoliter can be written as 1 pL.
In the metric system, "pico" is the standard SI prefix for trillionths, or 10⁻¹². This makes the picoliter (pL) a convenient decimal multiple of the liter (L).
In practice, picoliters (pL) are widely used across fine-tolerance laboratory, analytical, and micro-scale volume measurements within SI metric workflows, engineering documentation, and technical data sheets.
What Is a Gallon?
A gallon is a unit of volume equal to 4.54609 liters (L), the base unit for volume. British Imperial gallon defined as exactly 4.54609 liters. [2]
The gallon is classified as a US customary and imperial unit of volume. Gallons can be abbreviated as gal (UK); for example, 1 gallon can be written as 1 gal (UK).
When working with gallons (gal (UK)) in formulas or technical specifications, always verify whether your target system uses SI metric, US customary, or British imperial standards.
In practice, gallons (gal (UK)) are widely used across standard volume applications within US customary and imperial workflows, engineering documentation, and technical data sheets.
When converting volume between picoliters (pL) and gallons (gal (UK)), keep full floating-point precision (1 pL = 2.199692e-13 gal (UK); 1 gal (UK) = 4.54609e+12 pL) during intermediate calculations and round only the final gallon figure to match your instrument tolerance.
