The lubricating fluid secreted by the pleura is located between the two layers of the pleural membrane: the visceral and parietal pleura. This fluid helps reduce friction between the two layers during breathing movements.

The membrane that covers the lungs is called the pleura. It consists of two layers: the visceral pleura, which covers the outer surface of the lungs, and the parietal pleura, which lines the chest cavity. The pleura helps to protect and cushion the lungs.
Pleural Pressureatmospheric pressure
That is a good question! You have a pleura, that surround the lungs. You have inner and outer layers (visceral and parietal layers). Both are connected to each other. In fact you have a balloon, in which your lungs grow. You take out the air from the balloon and you get the pleura. So both the come together at the blood vessels and bronchi. The lungs are totally elastic organs and collapse to small ball, if air enters the pleura. This elasticity of lungs create the negative pressure in the pleura. The negative pressure in pleura keeps the lungs in expanded condition. You have little fluid in the pleura. This reduces the friction between the outer and inner layers of pleura.
The layer of serous membrane that is firmly attached to the surface of the lung is called the visceral pleura. It covers the outer surface of the lung and is closely adherent to the lung tissue, helping to protect and support the lungs.
The difference between these two pleura is that the parietal pleura is the outtermost covering of the lung which is adhered to the inner thoracic wall, while the visceral pleura is the lining which is directly adhered to the lung itself. The space between these two pleuras is know as the pleual cavity.
The outer membrane that covers the lungs is called the pleura. It consists of two layers - the visceral pleura, which is directly attached to the lungs, and the parietal pleura, which lines the chest cavity. The pleura helps to protect and support the lungs while allowing them to move smoothly during breathing.
Pleura are thin layers of smooth epithelium that make up the pleural tissue that lines the inner surface of the walls of the chest. The two layers of the pleura are in contact and slide over one another as the lungs expand and contract. A small amount of pleural fluid found in the thoracic cavity serves as a lubricant, reducing friction as the tissues rub against each other.

The membrane that consists of two layers kept moist by serous fluid is the pleura. The pleura allows the surfaces of the lungs and chest cavity to slide smoothly over each other during the act of breathing.
Pleural Cavity is the body cavity that surrounds the right and left lung. The pleura is a serous membrane which folds back to form a two-layered, membrane structure. The thin space between the two pleural layers is known as the pleural cavity; it normally contains a small amount of pleural fluid. The outer pleura parietal pleura is attached to the chest wall. The inner pleura, visceral pleura covers the lungs and adjoining structures.
The term "pleura" refers to a thin membrane that lines the chest cavity and covers the lungs. It has two layers: the visceral pleura (which is in contact with the lungs) and the parietal pleura (which lines the chest cavity). The pleura helps facilitate breathing by providing lubrication and reducing friction between the lungs and chest wall.
