What are some fluids with low viscosity?

Water, gasoline, and other liquids that flow freely have a low viscosity. Honey, syrup, motor oil, and other liquids that do not flow freely, like those shown in Figure 1, have higher viscosities.

Which liquid has less viscosity than water?

Acetone has a viscosity 3x less than water but weighs 2.5 times more.

Which fluid has highest density?

Mercury
Mercury has the highest density at standard temperature and pressure, Stay tuned with BYJU’S to learn more about other concepts such as the density of mercury.

Do thick liquids have high or low viscosity?

For instance, honey has a much higher viscosity than water. Viscosity is measured using a viscometer. Measured values span several orders of magnitude. Of all fluids, gases have the lowest viscosities, and thick liquids have the highest.

What’s the difference between low and high viscosity?

According to Wikipedia, viscosity is the friction between the molecules of fluid. Fluids with low viscosity have a low resistance and shear easily and the molecules flow quickly; high viscosity fluids move sluggishly and resist deformation.

Does a non viscous fluid exist?

There may be viscous or non-viscous liquid flow. Viscosity is a measure of a fluid’s thickness, and viscous fluids are considered very gloppy fluids, such as motor oil or shampoo. Non-viscous fluids are classified as fluids that have no resistance or negligible resistance to internal friction.

Does milk have a higher viscosity than water?

The viscosity of 5\% lactose solution at a given temperature is not much greater than that of water but skim milk has an appreciable viscosity approaching to that of whole milk….Table.10.1 Viscosity of whey and various types of milk.

Is there a liquid thinner than water?

Yes, not sure what you mean by “thinner”. If you mean less dense, it would be measured by the density of the fluid but not the viscosity. Examples include rubbing alcohol, but also motor oil, mineral oil, or corn oil. Some of these are more viscous than water but they float on water.

What liquid has the lowest density?

The correct answer is Petrol. Petrol has the lowest density among the given liquids.

Are viscosity and density related?

In fluid dynamics, viscosity is the parameter to measure the thickness or thinness of any given fluid. Density is the measure of spaces between two particles in a given fluid. Viscosity and density are the characteristics of a fluid, but there is no direct relation between viscosity and density.

What is difference between viscous and non viscous fluid?

The fluid that has more flow resistance is referred to as viscous fluid. Viscosity is a fluid factor, that is the degree of the amount of resistance between the fluid layers. Non-viscous fluids are classified as fluids that have no resistance or negligible resistance to internal friction.
