When paraffin oil and water are poured into a separate and the paraffin oil forms a layer on top of the water?
When paraffin oil and water are poured into a container, the paraffin oil forms a layer on top of the water because it is less dense than water. This difference in density causes the oil to float, creating a distinct separation between the two liquids. Additionally, paraffin oil is non-polar, while water is polar, leading to poor miscibility and further reinforcing the separation. As a result, the two substances do not mix and remain as distinct layers.
