Good question... With the information in my science classes, OIL does not dissolve in anything. But in my opinion I believe it is possible for oil to dissolve. I think oil may dissolve in acids, or any type of chemical. Oil can also dissolve when placed in boiling water for a period of time. Hope this helps! Good luck

*Miscible: two liquids that are miscible will mix together to form a solution. The liquid with the greater volume is the solvent and the other one(s) is(are) the solute(s).

Why mineral oil dissolve in hexane and not in water?
Polar substances are miscible (will dissolve) in each other and non-polar substances will dissolve in each other. "Like dissolves like!" Mineral oil is non-polar. Hexane is a six carbon chain and is also non-polar. Water on the other hand is polar because it contains an electronegative oxygen.
What are the solvents that will dissolve butter?
Peanut butter is a homogeneous suspension of peanut particles in an oil. More of a sludge or paste than a solvent/solute system. There are some dissolved flavour compounds in the oil (oil=solvent) and probably some salts or sugar dissolved in the water present in the nut particles (water=solvent)Aside: The oil in peanut butter is often not peanut oil. Peanut oil is a valuable side product and is stripped away and replaced with cheaper vegetable oils
