Here are some results: time to flow through funnel trial Liquid X Liquid Y 1.60 s 3.62 s 1.52 s 3.44 s 1.44 s 3.56 s Note: the two liquids have the same density. Which statement below is true about these liquids based only on the data in the table? O The intermolecular forces in liquid X are stronger than those in liquid Y. The boiling point of liquid X is higher than the boiling point of liquid Y. The viscosity of liquid X is greater than the viscosity of liquid Y. The surface tension of liquid X is greater than the surface tension of liquid Y. The viscosity of liquid X is less than the viscosity of liquid Y. 3.arrow_forward
