What is Viscid? Definition, Examples, and Scientific Explaination

Viscid refers to a substance that is thick and sticky, having a high viscosity. In other words, it has a high resistance to flowing or draining, and tends to cling to surfaces or objects it comes into contact with.

In the context of cooking, a viscid sauce or liquid is one that is thick and syrupy, and may be difficult to pour or stir due to its high viscosity. It may also be described as "gooey" or "gummy".

In scientific terms, viscosity is a measure of a fluid's resistance to flow, and is determined by factors such as its density, molecular weight, and temperature. A substance with high viscosity will resist flow more than one with low viscosity.
