1 poise = ____________(a) 0.1 kgm^-1s^-1(b) 1 kgm^-1s^-1(c) 10 kgm^-1s^-1(d) 100 kgm^-1s^-1I have been asked this question in an internship interview.The origin of the question is States of Matter topic in chapter States of Matter of Chemistry – Class 11

Answer»

Right option is (a) 0.1 kgm^-1s^-1

To explain I WOULD say: Poise is the unit of viscosity. It’s S.I. unit is 1 Newton second per square meter. It’s Pascal second. In C.G.S. system, the unit of viscosity is poise that is named after a SCIENTIST Jean Louise

Poiseuille. So, it’s 1 poise = 0.1 kgm^-1s^-1.
