Still there is confusion regarding viscosity of both fluids. I think viscosity of mercury is more than water.

Suman said:   7 years ago
Kinematic viscosity of water is more than mercury, but Dynamic viscosity of water is less than mercury.

Om Prakash said:   8 years ago
Dynamic viscosity of 'hg' is slightly viscous than 'h20'.
But in kinematic viscosity, it reverses.

Kartik said:   5 years ago
Viscosity of water is less than mercury.

Kinemetic viscosity of water is more than mercury.

Md Shahnawaz Alam said:   9 years ago
Viscosity of water is more than that of water because water is more adhesive than mercury.

Raghvendra said:   8 years ago
According to the values, the viscosity of mercury is more compared to water. Am I right?

Nitin jain said:   1 decade ago
Viscosity of water is more than mercury. Surface tension of water is less than mercury.

Hemraj said:   1 decade ago
Water is Viscosity are less than the mercury because mercury cohesion partial are more.

Ravindra said:   8 years ago
It is only true for kinematic viscosity. Because mercury has large density than water.

Mohan said:   8 years ago
The Viscosity of water is .89 centipoise while that of mercury is 1.53 centipoise.
