Yes, but keep in mind there are many type of honey, and many ways of processing the honey.
I will assume we are talking about natural honey, Liquid and unpasteurized... this is still a wide range of honeys as the properties of the honey are different by location and what flowers the nectar was gathered from. (not to mention the species of bees).
so in short i'd say: yes honey has a high viscosity at room temperature.
afterthought: "high viscosity" is a very broad term as well...

∙ 13y agoIt depends what you mean by 'high'. At normal room temperature it certainly has a higher viscosity than water, which in turn has a higher viscosity than ethyl alcohol, for example. Moreover, honey usually becomes move viscous over time, as the sugar in it crystallizes. Temperature is one factor that influences viscosity. In general, liquids become less viscous as they get hotter.
However, 'viscosity' is a rather generic term for various phenomena related to liquids, gels and other non-solid substances. A certain well-known on-line encyclopaedia has some reasonably good entries regarding viscosity and thixotropy.

When a liquid has a high viscosity what does that mean?
A liquid with high viscosity is thick and runs slowly. Some example of highly viscous liquids are molasses, honey, and syrup.
What has Low density and high viscosity?
honey has high viscosity lah, and water has low viscosity. anything that resists flow has high viscosity...lah. honey has high viscosity lah, and water has low viscosity. anything that resists flow has high viscosity...lah.
What is an example of a liquid with high viscosity?
Lava has a rather high viscosity compared to most liquids.
How is the knowledge of viscosity is applied to a beekeeper?
peanutbutter is yummy in my tummy :D
What the fluid measure of viscosity?
Viscosity is the measure of friction between adjacent layers of materials.
When a liquid has a high viscosity what does that mean?
A liquid with high viscosity is thick and runs slowly. Some example of highly viscous liquids are molasses, honey, and syrup.
Which is a plausible reason for why a given liquid has a high viscosity?
A plausible reason why a given liquid has a high viscosity is that the compound has a high amount of hydrogen bonding. Examples of liquids with a high viscosity are lava, honey and corn syrup.
When you say that a liquid has a high viscosity you mean that it?
lows slowly like honey
What has Low density and high viscosity?
honey has high viscosity lah, and water has low viscosity. anything that resists flow has high viscosity...lah. honey has high viscosity lah, and water has low viscosity. anything that resists flow has high viscosity...lah.
When compared to high viscosity liquid a liquid with a low viscosity does what?
Low viscosity liquid is more runny, like water, then compared to a high viscosity liquid.
How can you get low viscoSity and high resistance?
You get low viscosity with thin liquids like water that flow easily. Low viscosity means the liquid has low resistance. You get high resistance when you have liquids that flow slowly like honey and syrup, which means high viscosity.
What is low viscosity?
having low sliding power. The lowest form of viscoity is honey WRONG! viscosity is the tendency of a liquid to keep from flowing-its resistance to flowing. HIGH viscosity is thick substances like HONEY, and low viscosity is thin substances like water
Does honey have high or low viscosity?
Honey has a high viscosity. Viscosity is a measurement of internal friction or thickness so honey would be more viscous than say water for example.
A liquid such as honey which does not pour easily is said to be?
Well liquids like honey is said to be a newtonian fluid or of high viscosity - which means there is greater friction between molecules... google "viscosity" for more help. -mg.
What liqiud has high viscosity?
An example of a liquid with a high viscosity is Molasses… essentially, a liquid with a high viscosity is one that flows very slowly
What liquids have a high viscosity?
Liquids with high viscosity flow slowly, like honey. Liquids with low viscosity flow quickly, like water and vinegar.
How do liquid with a high viscosity differ from liquid with low viscosity?
The liquids with high viscosity flow slowly and liquids with low viscosity flow quickly.
