What is the 'molecular' origin of the viscosity? The molecular origin of elasticity is almost clear for me: at the very bottom the 'elasticity' comes from the attraction and repulsion between atoms when they are reasonably far from each other or very close (like Lennard-Jones potential). Is there a similar description for the viscosity as well? Where does it come from?
