What regulates, or gives a substance the viscosity it has?
Answer Posted / eugene
Viscosity only applies to fluids, ie. gas and liquid.
However, the nature of viscosity for gas and liquid are
different.
In general, the liquid viscosity is dependent on the
strength of intermolecular attraction. The stronger the
intermolecular attraction, the more the viscous the liquid
is.
In fact, raising the temperature of the liquid decreases
its viscosity. This reflects the viscosity of a liquid is
indeed dependent on the intermolecular attraction.
