प्रश्न
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?
उत्तर
The increase in temperature increases the kinetic energy of the molecules which decreases the intermolecular forces operating between its particles and hence, the viscosity of a liquid decreases. So, the viscosity of a liquid decreases if its temperature is increased.
