With increase in temperature the viscosity of

A

gases decreases

B

liquids increases

C

gases increases

D

liquids decreases

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C, D
For liquids coefficient of viscosity, `eta prop (1)/(sqrt(T))`
i.e., with increase in temperature `eta` decreases.
For gases coefficient of viscosity, `eta prop sqrt(T)`
i.e., with increase in temperature `eta` increases.
