Fluids
Viscosity
Viscosity refers to the resistance of a certain substance to movement. For example, honey is a viscous substance. Water is a non viscous substance.
Maple syrup is an example of a viscous substance. This is because there is less space between the particles and it is more resistant to movement than other substances.
Apple juice is an example of a non-viscous substance. The particles inside are separated more than in viscous substances like honey and it doesn't resist movement.

Temperature
When the temperature is cold the particles of anything stay closer together and move less. This means that when something is cold it gets denser, therefore, heavier on more viscous. Since it gets more viscous the flow rate slows down.
When the temperature is warm or hot the particles of any substance move faster and farther. Since they are moving farther apart this means that there is more space in between particles, therefore, it gets less dense, less heavy and less viscous. Since it becomes less viscous the flow rate becomes faster.

You can use volume when calculating density. It can also be used in cooking/baking, fueling your car, swimming pools etc.
