What is the relation between viscosity and density of a liquid?
Both are indirectly related through temperature. When temperature increases both viscosity and density increases.
Does density tie in with viscosity?
Fluid behavior is related to both density and viscosity. By using the kinematic and dynamic viscosity of a fluid, the density can be calculated.
If you increase density of liquid the effect on viscosity is?
The viscosity of the liquid will increase.
How does the density of a liquid affects its viscosity?
denser liquids tend to have more viscosity
What is the relationship between density and viscosity?
There is no relationship because water, pours easily and has a low density and syrup has a high viscosity at room temperature when heated it will pour quite easily while the density stays the same.
What is the difference and similarity between air and mud?
Similarities' Both are matter. Differences: Density
Why separation flow occur in annular pipe?
Because of differences in viscosity and density.

What properties does liquid water have that ice does not?
Properties differences between liquid and solis water: density, specific heat, standard molar entropy, refractive index, thermal coductivity, the liquid has viscosity etc.
How does viscosity compare to density?
they are two truly different concepts. The density is a measurement of the molecular weight of the composition. In simpler words, density = number of molecules x molecular weight/volume occupied, while the viscosity is a measurement of the inter-molecular forces and molecule shapes. Viscosity tells you the "friction" between two layers of the given fluid, while density varies slightly with temperature, viscosity changes rapidly. Both density and viscosity decreases with temperature, but viscosity mostly has an exponential relationship with temperature. Density holds a linear relationship. This temperature viscosity relationship is the base of the auto lubricant technology. Viscosity and density are two different physical phenomena depending on totally different aspects. The common misconception of "heavier fluids are more viscos" is to be omitted.
What is the relationship between viscosity and refractive index?
refractive index is equals to squarroot of relative permitivity
What is Kinematic viscosity?
It is the ratio of the dynamic viscosity to the density of the fluid.
If you increase density of liquid the effect on viscosity is?
The viscosity of the liquid will increase.
How does the density of a liquid affects its viscosity?
denser liquids tend to have more viscosity
What is vescocity?
Rate of flow any liquids is called viscosity... Viscosity depends on the density...
Does the density of a liquid affect the liquids of viscosity?
denser liquids tend to have more viscosity
