Is an oil with the density 0.9 denser than water?

No, relative density is relative to water. Therefore, oil with a relative density of 0.9 is 90% the density of water. Which is why oil floats on top of water. Put both in a glass to see.


Why oil not mixed with water?

Because of different densities; being density of oil lower than water density, this makes oil float on water


Is the density of water more then the density of oil?

Cooking oil has a density of 910 to 930 kilograms per cubic meter or 0.91 to 0.93 grams per cubic centimeter. Therefore it is lighter than water and floats on it.

How you can convert Density of Crude oil into specific Gravity?

The same way you convert any density to specific gravity. Just divide the density of the substance (crude oil in this case) by the density of the reference substance (usually water, for liquids).


How does the oils density compares to water?

The density of oil is generally lower than that of water, which means that oil floats on top of water. This difference in density is due to the composition of oils, which are usually less dense than water molecules.


What happens to the density when corn oil is poured into water?

Water has a fixed density (depending on temperature), and it is more dense than corn oil by a little bit. If corn oil is added to water, the density of the mixture will decrease. This applies to "room temperature" water and oil. No one should be pouring hot oil into water.
