"When a fluid is heated, the particles within the fluid gain kinetic energy, and will be more able to overcome the intermolecular attraction forces within the fluid."
I think this will be enough actually, but I'm not sure why the decrease is an exponential decay.
Does anybody know why viscosity changes with temperature?
I'm expected to do a short explanation or suggestion for my homework of why this happens but to be honest I'm not sure. :confused:
The only reason I can think of is higher temperature means more energy therefore less internal...
