How much information does a processor process per second?

What is 1 operation per second? 1 hertz? Processing 1 bit?

Let's say a processor with 1 billion transistors and 1 hertz is loaded for 1 second. It will process 1 billion bits

That is, this processor will process

1000000.0000 kilobits
1000.0000
megabits 1.0000 gigabits

or 125000 kilobytes
Or 125 megabytes Is that

right?

Clock frequency is measured in Hertz.
Copy-paste from stackoverflow:
If we talk about the cycle of the processor, this is the interval between two pulses of the clock generator.
But if you answer the question Tact as a unit of measure is:
a separate stage (time interval) of any cyclic process, and it doesn’t matter here whether one operation is performed, or a set of operations, 1 bit or several bits change.

Flops (there are examples of calculations)
