Answer / eugene
Viscosity only applies to fluids, ie. gas and liquid.
However, the nature of viscosity for gas and liquid are
different.
In general, the liquid viscosity is dependent on the
strength of intermolecular attraction. The stronger the
intermolecular attraction, the more the viscous the liquid
is.
In fact, raising the temperature of the liquid decreases
its viscosity. This reflects the viscosity of a liquid is
indeed dependent on the intermolecular attraction.

Answer / chem
As we know what is viscosity is
Viscosty is the resistance offered in the motion of fluid.
it is the ratio of the shear stress and velocity gradient
so it depends on the following factors
shear stress
temperature
velocity

Answer / shrinivas prasad bulusuwar
viscosity is basically the resistance to flow, caused by
friction between two adjacent layers of the fluid.
The bottommost layer offers resistance to the adjacent
layer causing decrease in the velocity of the adjacent
layer.
Also, viscosity is caused due to the inter-molecular forces
of attraction.

THERMODYNAMIC - EXAMPLE 10.2 : A cylinder with a movable piston contains 0.1 mole of a monoatomic ideal gas. The piston moves through state a, b and c. The heat Q, changes from state c to a is + 685 J. The work W, changes from state c to a is - 120 J. The work, W performed from state a to b then to c is 75 J. By using the first law of thermodynamic, U = Q + W where U is the internal energy : (a) Determine the change in internal energy between states a and c. (b) Is heat added or removed from the gas when the gas is taken along the path abc? (c) Calculate the heat added or removed when the gas is taken along the path abc?
QUANTUM CHEMISTRY AND CHEMICAL ENGINEERING - EXAMPLE 31.5 : In a wavefunction, let P(x) = A cos kx + B sin kx. By using the boundary conditions of x = 0 and x = l, where P(0) = P(l) = 0, prove by mathematical calculation that P(x) = B sin (npx / l) where p = 22 / 7 approximately, n is a rounded number. A, B and k are constants.

QUANTUM CHEMISTRY AND CHEMICAL ENGINEERING - EXAMPLE 31.6 : In N + 1 Rule in Quantum Chemistry, whenever a spin 1 / 2 nucleus is adjacent to N other nuclei, it is split into N + 1 distinct peaks. In 1 peak or singlet, there is only 1 magnitude. In 2 peaks or doublet, the ratio of magnitude of each peak is 1 : 1. In 3 peaks or triplet, the ratio of magnitude of each peak is 1 : 2 : 1. In 4 peaks or quartet, the ratio of magnitude of each peak is 1 : 3 : 3 : 1. In 5 peaks or quintet, the ratio of magnitude of each peak is 1 : 4 : 6 : 4 : 1. (a) By using binomial coefficients or Triangle of Pascal find the ratio of magnitude of each peak if 6 peaks exists. (b) How many adjacent nuclei are available in a spin 1 / 2 nucleus in such situation of 6 peaks?
