    Answer: False

    Explanation:

    Viscosity is defined as the resistance to the flow of a fluid. More are the inter molecular forces between the particles of a liquid, the more the viscosity of the liquid and thus it will flow slowly.

    Example: Oil is more viscous than water and thus flows slowly than water.

    Effect of temperature: Viscosity decreases with increase in temperature as the forces among particles decrease due to increase in kinetic energy and thus they offer less resistance to flow.

    Thus viscosity of liquids will decrease with increasing temperature.
