#1# millimolar = #1xx10^(-3)# molars

Explanation:

One molar contains 1,000 millimolars. You can convert molar to millimolar by multiplying the figure by 1,000. In the metric system, the prefix "milli-" represents 10 to the power of -3, or one one-thousandth.

So 1,000 millimolars = 1 molar. In scientific notation,

#1xx10^3# millimolars = 1 molar

So, multiplying both sides by #10^(-3)# gives

#1# millimolar = #1xx10^(-3)# molars
