WATER’S VISCOSITY IS SET AT A CALCULATED RATE
When we say “liquids,” we imagine a highly fluid sub-
stance. But in reality, liquids’ viscosity rate can vary greatly. For
instance the viscosity rates of tar, sulfuric acid, glycerol and olive
oil are very different from one another. When these substances
are compared with water, this range of differences is more
clearly understood: Water is ten billion times more fluid
than tar, a thousand times more fluid than glycerol, 100
times more fluid than olive oil, and 25 times
more fluid than sulfuric acid.
As this comparison demon-
strates, water is a substance of high
viscosity. We can state that it has
the highest viscosity rate of
any liquid, if a few substances
like ether and liquid hydro-
gen—gases at room
temperature—are
discounted.
Is water’s viscosity
rate relevant to life?
