Question:
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?
Solution:
As the temperature increases, the intermolecular force operating between its particle decreases, the bond strength increases and also the kinetic energy increases.
Hence, as the temperature increases viscosity decreases because the viscosity decreases when the intermolecular forces operating reduced.
As the temperature increases the viscosity decreases.
