What liquid is more viscous than water?
Honey
Honey is between 2,000 and 10,000 times more viscous than water. Some fluids are so viscous they appear to be solid and yet, over time, slowly flow. One of the most viscous liquids known is pitch, also known as bitumen, asphalt, or tar.
Is there a liquid less dense than water?
Lighter liquids (like water or vegetable oil) are less dense than heavier liquids (like honey or corn syrup) so they float on top of the heavier liquids….How Does It Work.
| Material | Density (g/cm3) |
|---|---|
| Water | 1.00 |
| Ice Cube | 0.92 |
| Vegetable Oil | 0.92 |
| Baby Oil | 0.83 |
What liquids are very viscous?
Honey, syrup, motor oil, and other liquids that do not flow freely, like those shown in Figure 1, have higher viscosities.
Is a viscous liquid more dense?
There is no direct relation between viscosity and density. However, both Viscosity and density are affected by temperature. In general, for any fluids, when the temperature is increased, its density decreases, thus the fluid becomes less viscous. …
What liquid is the least viscous?
The least viscous at any temperature must be superfluid liquid helium.
Which liquid is the most dense?
Mercury is the densest liquid at standard conditions for temperature and pressure (STP).
What liquid is less viscous than water?
Acetone has a viscosity 3x less than water but weighs 2.5 times more. I would like to know how water weighs less but flows slower.
Is there anything less viscous than water?
Acetone has a viscosity 3x less than water but weighs 2.5 times more.
How viscous is milk?
Approximate Viscosities of Some Common Liquids
| Liquid | Specific Gravity @ 16°C | Absolute Viscosity cP |
|---|---|---|
| Milk | 1.02-1.05 | 2.0 |
| Milk | 1.02-1.05 | 1.0 |
| Milk Whey 48\% Sugar | 800-1500 | |
| Process Cheese | 6500 |
Which liquid is the least viscous?
Which liquid is the most viscous least viscous?
Out of all the liquids I tested (honey, water, milk, cooking oil, glycerin, hand sanitizer, and syrup), honey is the most viscous and milk is the least.
Are there any substances with a higher viscosity than water?
Yes, lots of them. Bust out a chemistry book and look it up… they usually compare viscosity to the viscosity of water. Wouldn’t logic dictate liquid hydrogen as having the highest viscosity?
What type of molecules make up a viscous liquid?
Long chain molecules make very viscous liquids – like in the bitumen drop experimentswhere a drop falls every several years… looking up the density of bitumen it is very similar to that of water, but the viscosity is hugely different.
What is a liquid with a viscosity less than 1 centipoise?
Water has a viscosity of about 1 centipoise. Vegetable oil has a viscosity of about 3, and tar of approximately 20,000,000.So what we are looking for is a liquid which has a viscosity <1 centipoise. A common example of this would be acetone (at about 0.3 centipoise, depend…
Why does Molasses have a higher density than water?
It does not. Oil has a density less than water (it floats on water) but its viscosity is higher. Density is the ratio of mass to volume. A more viscous liquid (thicker) is probably heavier (has more mass). So, if mass goes up, but volume remains the same, the density increases. And, indeed, molasses is denser than water.
