Select Properties of Liquids (Section)(a) Would you expect

Chapter , Problem 38E

(choose chapter or problem)

(a) Would you expect the viscosity of \(n-\) pentane, \(\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{3}\), to be larger or smaller than the viscos-
ity of \(n-\) hexane, \(\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{3} \)?

(b) Would you expect the viscosity of neopentane, \(\left(\mathrm{CH}_{3}\right)_{4} \mathrm{C}\), to be smaller or larger than the viscosity of  \(n-\) pentane? (See Figure  to see the shapes of these molecules.)
