Carbon is most commonly encountered as a solid, graphite or diamond are the best known allotropes.
Liquid carbon can be produced but this is "cutting edge" science - we are talking of temperatures 4000 K and high vacuum to prevent oxidation and as the liquid carbon changes density with pressure most work has been carried out on trying to understand the bonding between the carbon atoms. I don't believe any of the forms have had their viscosities measured yet.

How does viscosity relate to the number of carbons in a compound?
The viscosity increase when the number of carbon atoms in a chain increase.
Do shield volcanoes have high viscosity?
No. Shield volcanoes are fed by low-viscosity basaltic magma.
What is the difference in silica content and viscosity between light color and dark colored magma?
The lower the viscosity is the hotter the magma is and faster it flows.Higher the viscosity is the cooler it is and slower it flows down.
What is the viscosity of ferric chloride?
ferric chloride is a solid compound so the term viscisity is meaning less.... but the viscosity of its aquous solution depends upon its concentration ..as concentration increases the viscosity also increases.....
What conditions make for a violent volcanic eruption?
Magma with high silica content
How does viscosity relate to the number of carbons in a compound?
The viscosity increase when the number of carbon atoms in a chain increase.
As a carbon chain length increases viscostiy..?
Viscosity also increases with carbon chain length, at least of linear hydrocarbons.
What is the difference between viscosity and viscosity index?
Viscosity is resistance to flow of oil Viscosity Index is a scale to measure viscosity
Does soda have a low viscosity?
The viscosity is similar to the viscosity of water.
What common technique is used to change the viscosity of a fluid?
Fluid viscosity can be changed by several methods so the answer is it depends on the application. For most fluids, viscosity is a function of temperature so increasing temperature can reduce the viscosity. Fluids can also be diluted with a solvent. Examples would be honey and water or paint and paint thinner. Fluid viscosity is also a function of the length of the molecules that form your fluid. An example would be long carbon chain molecules that can be chemically broken and therefore shortened thus reducing the viscosity of the fluid. I'm sure there are other methods but hopefully one of these will be of value.
What is the term for the thickness of a liquid?
Viscosity is the measure of the resistance of a liquid. This is often thought of as the thickness of a liquid.
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 the meaning of viscosity in Malayalam?
viscosity
What affects the viscosity of a molten material?
viscosity is affected by heat and water.by adding water viscosity decreases,by heating viscosity increases....
How does viscosity happen?
Viscosity doesn't happen. Viscosity is a measure of how easily a liquid flows.
What is relative viscosity?
Relative viscosity is defined as ratio of viscosity of solution to that of a pure solvent.
What is viscosity in Filipino?
Viscosity in Filipino is called "kadalisayan" or "lantayang".
