Principles of General Chemistry 2
\(\mathrm{C}_{5} \mathrm{H}_{11} \mathrm{OH} ; \mathcal{M}=88.15 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mol}\)) has nearly the same molar mass as hexane (\(\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{14} ; \mathcal{M}=86.17 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mol}\)) but is more than 12 times as viscous at \(20^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). Explain.
