No ...at least at STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure) 'Non-Newtonian' behaviour occurs only under very special circumstances, i.e. the subatomic level or at environmental extremes, e.g. near Absolute Zero, or the very close approach thereto. The best examples of a 'fluid'/liquid(?) exhibiting Non-Newtonian behaviour are those of liquid nitrogen, helium and hydrogen, all well below their boiling points. Since the original Q specified 'fluid', the subatomic case = moot.

How much does a fluid ounce of mercury weigh?

The density of mercury (Hg) is 13.534  grams per milliliter.There are 29.5735297 milliliters in a fluid ounce.Therefore, there are 13.534 g/mL * 29.5735 mL/fl oz. = 400.248 gramsThere are 28.3495 grams per dry ounce, so:400.248 grams ÷ 28.3495 g/oz. = 14.12 dry ounceswhich is also equal to 0.8824 pounds.


The density of mercury is 5427 kgm3. If the density of water is 1.0 gmL will mercury float or sink in water?

Since the density of mercury (5427 kg/m³) is greater than the density of water (1000 kg/m³ or 1.0 g/cm³), mercury will sink in water. Objects with higher density than the fluid they are in will sink, while objects with lower density will float.


What is the difference between a wetting and non-wetting fluid?

A wetting fluid is capable of maintaining surface contact with a solid and its contact angles are less than 90 degrees (the angle starts from the wetted surface to the surface of the fluid). However non-wetting fluids are not willing to keep the contact area as large as wetting fluids and their contact angles are higher than 90 degrees. Imagine a droplet of mercury. As a non-wetting fluid, mercury remains still on a solid surface like a ball. It does not spread on the solid surface like water.


A is a thin glass tube with a bulb on the one end that contains liquid usually mercury or colored alcohol?

A is a thermometer used for measuring temperature, typically with mercury or colored alcohol as the measuring fluid. The liquid expands or contracts based on temperature changes, providing a reading on the scale of the thermometer.


What is the temperature of the mercury when the length of the mercury thread is 8cm?

The length of a mercury thread in a thermometer is not directly related to the temperature of the mercury. The temperature is denoted by the level that the mercury rises to in the calibrated tube. The length of the mercury thread only indicates the volume of mercury present.
