Explain the effect of increasing the temperature of a liquid, on intermolecular forces operating between its particles. What will happen to the viscosity of a liquid if its temperature is increased ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The rise in temperature tends to overcome intermolecualr force which operatre in the molecules of a liquid. These forces decrease and viscosity decreases with the rise in temperature.
