Higher viscosity index of a lubricating oil denotes_______________?

Correct answer: A. Less changes in fluidity of oil with temperature

  • A. Less changes in fluidity of oil with temperature
  • B. Substantially high change in fluidity of oil with temperature
  • C. Its unsuitability under varying temperature conditions
  • D. None of these

Explanation

A high viscosity index means the oil's viscosity changes relatively little as temperature changes. Such oils retain more consistent flow properties over a wide operating-temperature range.
