Well, honey, ketchup is thicker than liquid dish soap because it has a higher viscosity due to its higher sugar content and added thickeners like xanthan gum. Liquid dish soap, on the other hand, is designed to be more watery to easily spread and create suds for cleaning. So, next time you're comparing condiments to cleaning products, just remember it's all about that viscosity, darling.
because my mammy said
Ketchup is more viscous than dish soap because it has a higher concentration of solids like tomatoes and sugars, which contribute to its thickness. Dish soap, on the other hand, is designed to be more fluid in order to easily spread and dissolve in water for cleaning.
yes of course it does stupid
Viscous means how thick a LIQUID is and how tightly the particles are packed together if the liquid is thick(less runny) it is more viscous if the liquid is thin(more runny) it is less viscous
Viscosity is a measure of the thickness or how runny a liquid is. More viscous means thicker and syrup-like. Less viscous means more runny and more like water.
It's not really a solid converting to a liquid, it's a high-viscosity (thick) liquid that becomes less viscous with stress. The best analogy I can think of is tomato ketchup: you can turn a bottle upside down and it takes ages to run out, but if you shake the bottle then the ketchup goes runny. I believe that ketchup isn't technically thixotropic, but it's a useful "everyday example" for explanatory purposes. Hope that helps.
Hand soap is typically more viscous than dish detergent. Hand soap is formulated to be thick and creamy, while dish detergent is often thinner and more watery to help it easily spread and lather in water.
When the liquid is at high temperature, the molecules of liquid have more energy & spread further apart. This enables the molecules to move around much more in the liquid which makes it less viscous or fluid.
Moving through a viscous liquid is harder because the liquid has higher resistance to flow due to its thickness and stickiness. This resistance causes a drag force that opposes the movement of objects through the liquid, requiring more force or energy to overcome.
Honey :)
you can measure it by dropping a lead ball into the liquid while timing it with a stop watch if it is runny then it is more viscous and when it is thick and not runny it is less viscous.
Yes, the temperature of the water can affect the density of the ketchup packet. When the water is cold, the ketchup inside the packet may become more viscous and slightly denser. Conversely, in warm water, the ketchup may become less viscous and slightly less dense.
