Viscosity of liquid decreases with increase in........

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Viscosity:** - Viscosity is defined as the internal resistance of a liquid to flow. It describes how thick or sticky a liquid is. Higher viscosity means the liquid flows less easily, while lower viscosity indicates it flows more freely. 2. **Effect of Temperature on Viscosity:** - When the temperature of a liquid increases, the kinetic energy of the molecules also increases. This increased energy allows the molecules to move more freely. ...
