Measurement of Solution Viscosity via Diffusion-Ordered NMR Spectroscopy (DOSY).

The article presents a science experiment to help college students measure the solution viscosity via diffusion-ordered nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. In this experiment, students explore the intermolecular forces including viscosity through numerous methods. Emphasis is on the investigation of the viscosity, a physical property based on molecular structure, using advanced NMR techniques.
