    Viscometer and Viscosity

    • A viscometer is a device used to measure the viscosity of a fluid.
    • The Ostwald viscometer method is used to measure the viscosity of a liquid by determining the time it takes for a certain volume of the liquid to flow through a narrow tube.
    • The viscosity of a liquid measures its resistance to flow, or its thickness and stickiness.
