Out of CH3OH and H2O which has higher viscosity and why

Open in App
Solution

Dear student'


Methanol has less viscosity than water. That means water is more viscous than methanol.
This is because the hydrogen bonding in water is more stronger than the bonding in methanol, which increases the intermolecular attractions thereby making water more viscous.
