Why does viscosity vary with respect to temperature?

the increase in temperature increases the K.E of the molecules and distances among molecules therefore the force of friction decreases as the result of which molecules move faster and viscosity becomes decreased....


Lowest viscosity of water at room temperature?

The lowest viscosity of water at room temperature is around 0.89 millipascal-second (mPa·s) or 0.89 centipoise (cP). However, the viscosity of water can vary slightly depending on impurities and dissolved substances.


How does temperature vary when a substance changes from solid to liquid?

When heat is applied to a solid, its temperature rises until it reaches the melting point of the substance. As the heat application continues, the temperature remains constant at the melting point as all of the heat is consumed in changing the state of the substance from solid to liquid. It is only after the conversion to liquid is complete that the temperature of the substance again starts to rise as long as heat is still being applied.


How can the viscosity of a fluid vary?

yes


What characteristics must a liquid have before it can be used in a thermometer?

One thermometric property that is required is that it must vary linearly with temperature. In liquid-in-glass thermometers, the length of the liquid thread is often used to determine temperature. Thus when temperature increases, the liquid must expand uniformly with temperature, so that it can be used to measure temperature accurately.


What is the viscosity of rocks and of metal when they are molten?

The viscosity of molten rock and metal will vary depending on their chemistry.


What liquid becomes a gas at 100 degrees celsius?

Water will become a gas at approximately that temperature (the temperature may vary, depending mainly on the pressure).


What is the viscosity for iodine?

Iodine is a solid crystal, and is not viscous. It may be dissolved in alcohol, and viscosity will vary based on the solution made. If the crystal is heated to extremely high temperatures it will become a vapor, which can have its viscosity measured.


How do you change the viscosity of honey?

You can change the viscosity of honey by adding water. While you will no longer have pure honey, the water will change its viscosity. The viscosity of pure honey is approximately 10,000 cP at 20°C and at 1 atmosphere. However, this will vary with the type of honey you have.


How many ounces are in a liquid pound?

It would vary depending on the liquid you are measuring. Water for example, 16.9 oz of water weighs one pound give or take a little for temperature.


What is the name for the temperature when liquid turns into a gas?

It's called the boiling point. It is the temp where the vapor pressure of the "liquid" is equal to the air pressure around (above) it. This is when the liquid [water] reaches 100 degrees Cecilius [at sea level].


What is the temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid?

That depends on many variables. Firstly from a liquid to a solid or a liquid to a gas? If solid, water will freeze at 0 degrees celcius. Other liquids vary. Some can be very hot and still solid, others very cold and still solid. And Vise VersaHope it helped!
