Liquids flow because they have the ability to resist compression. The rate at which it flows depends on the viscosity of the liquid.

How does viscosity work in determining the flow of liquids?

Viscosity is a measure of a liquid's resistance to flow. Liquids with high viscosity flow more slowly, while liquids with low viscosity flow more quickly. The viscosity of a liquid is determined by its molecular structure and temperature. Higher viscosity liquids have stronger intermolecular forces, making them flow more slowly.


How do liquids with high viscosity differ from liquids with a low viscosity?

Viscosity is a property of liquids, showing that liquid's resistance to flow. A liquid with a high viscosity would mean it flowed slowly. A liquid with a low viscosity would mean it flows rather quickly.

What is an instrument for measuring the flow of liquids beyond viscosity?

A flow meter is an instrument used to measure the flow rate of fluids, including liquids with varying viscosities. Flow meters come in various types such as turbine, electromagnetic, ultrasonic, and mass flow meters, which can accurately measure flow rates for a wide range of liquids.


How does surface tension and viscosity affect the flow of liquids?

Surface tension affects how liquid molecules interact at the surface, causing liquids to form droplets or spread out. Viscosity is a measure of a liquid's resistance to flow, where high viscosity liquids flow slower than low viscosity liquids. Both properties can impact how liquids flow and behave in different situations.
