ABSTRACT

Time of flow, viscosity coefficients,, change in activation energies of distilled water and mixtures of powdered peak milk and glucose in water solutions were determined through a simple constructed capillary viscometer. It was observed that the viscosity coefficients and activation energy change increased linearly with increase in solute concentration in the solvent. Likewise, the activation energy change shows a linear relationship with viscosity at 308 K.
