Asked in Chemistry
What is the word for how easly a liquid will flow?
Viscosity ... the lower the viscosity of a
liquid, the easier it will flow.
Agooey liquid is said to be Viscose.
Asked in Chemistry
What is viscosity of a liquid is?
The viscosity of a liquid is its resistance to flow. For
example, honey has a high viscosity and water has a low
viscosity.
Asked in Science
Where is viscosity used?
Viscosity is the resistance of a liquid when it tries to
flow.
Asked in Chemistry
How does surface tension and viscosity affect the flow of liquids?
The higher the viscosity the slower the flow of the liquid.
Asked in Sentence and Word Structure, Example Sentences
A sentence using the word viscosity?
Viscosity is the resistance of a liquid to flow.
Asked in Chemistry, Physics
How is the flow rate of a liquid related to its viscosity?
it is related because the higher viscosity the slower the flow
rate so the viscosity changes the flow rate rapidly.
Asked in Electronics Engineering, Chemistry
The resistence of a liquid to flowing?
Viscosity is how much a liquid resists flow. Water has a low
viscosity while molasses has a high viscosity.
Asked in Chemistry
How do liquids with a high viscosity differ from liquids with a low viscosity?
Because liquids with a high viscosity flow slowly as to where a
liquid with a low viscosity flow quickly
Asked in Physics, Chemistry
What is the speed of a liquid?
I think you may be talking about viscosity. The viscosity of a
liquid is its resistance to flow, or its thickness. A less viscous
liquid will flow more quickly than a more viscous fluid. As an
example, water has very low viscosity and molasses has a high
viscosity.
Asked in Science, Physics, Chemistry
What is the relationship between the viscosity of a liquid and a it's flow?
The more viscous the liquid (higher the viscosity), the lower
flow rate you will have for a given "pipe" and pressure
difference.
Asked in Chemistry
Do liquids with high viscosity flow faster?
No, just the opposite actually.Viscosity is the measure of the
thickness of a liquid so a thicker liquid(ie, a liquid of high
viscosity)would logically flow slower.
Asked in Physics, Chemistry
What does viscosity mean for a liquid?
It is the ability of the liquid to flow. The higher the
viscosity, the less the ability to flow. For example, oil is more
viscous than water; honey is more viscous than oil.
Asked in Geology, Chemistry
What are two factors that affect viscosity and flow?
Pressure and temperature are the two factors that affect flow
and viscosity. Viscosity refers to the resistance of a liquid to
the shear forces.
Asked in Desserts, Snacks, and Treats, Candy
How is knowledge of viscosity is applied to candy making?
Its important because with viscosity the candy is hard and is
doesn't flow like a liquid.
Viscosity means "the resistance to flow"
Asked in Science
What describes how a liquid pours?
One can describe how a liquid pours by its viscosity. Viscosity
is a liquid's ability to resist flow. Therefore, the higher the
viscosity, the "thicker" the liquid is and causes it to pour out
slowly. If a liquid is said to have a low viscosity, the liquid is
"thinner" and can easily be poured out.
Asked in Chemistry
Does liquid flow because it has no shape of its own?
Liquid flows because of its viscosity.
Asked in Science, DIY Projects
How do you increase viscosity?
Viscosity is the resistance of a liquid to flow. When
temperature decreases Viscosity generally increases. Viscosity
generally decreases when the temperature increases.
Asked in Elements and Compounds
What is viscosity of copper?
Viscosity is a measure of the resistance to flow of a liquid.
Copper is a solid metal, so measuring viscosity does not apply.
Asked in Chemistry
Why do some liquids flow more easily then others?
This is due to the viscosity of the liquid, or its resistance to
flow.
Asked in Electronics Engineering, Physics, Chemistry
What is the resistance of a liquid to flowing?
The resistance of the flow of a liquid is called viscosity. The
more viscous the liquid, the greater the resistance to flow. For
example, water has a very low viscosity, so it flows rapidly.
However, molasses is very viscous, so it flows slowly.
Asked in Magnetism
Does magnetism flow through thin and thick liquid?
It depends on the magnetic properties of the liquid, not on the
viscosity.
Asked in Science, Definitions
Scientific definition of viscosity?
A liquid resistance to shear force or flow.
Asked in Physics, Kinematics
What is the motion that opposes the motion of an object through liquid?
Viscosity opposes the motion of an object through liquid.
Asked in Chemistry
Example of liquid with low viscosity?
liquids that have low viscosity seem to flow quicker
example: vinegar and water
