It doesn't. Cooking oil doesn't dissolve in water and therefore doesn't affect the chemistry of the water.

Why does water weigh more than cooking oil?
It dosent, waters density is lower then cooking oil, resulting in cooking oil floating on water
Which has the lowest density between cooking oil and water?
The oil is floating on water, so it density is lower than that of water.
Because they are both liquids cooking oil and water have the same density?
false
Why when you put water on the bottom and cooking oil on the top why doesn't the oil sink?
Cooking oil has a higher viscosity. Alcohol doesn't, thus it "floats" (more like lies) on the matter which is heavier. Also, oil isn't polar and water is therefore they don't mix
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.
What liquid has a density less than water?
Volatile liquids such as alcohol and ethanol have less density than water. They also evaporate faster than water does.
What is the density of cooking oil?
When you put oil and water into the same container and wait a while for them to get organized, the oil winds up on top of the water. Oil performs the physical maneuver known as "floating" with respect to the water, because its (the oil's) density is less than the density of water.
Is used cooking oil homogeneous or heterogeneous?
Cooking oil is homogeneous as long as it is pure. This means that the oil is consistent in density throughout the bottle.
Does oil or water have a lower density?
Oil floats on water, and has a lower density.
What helps plants grow best orange juice and water or cooking oil and water?
cooking oil and water.
Oil floats on water because its density is what on water?
Type your answer here... the oil has more density
How is the density of oil an advantage in the cleanup?
The density of oil is less than the density of water (which is about 1.0 g/mL). So the two liquids will stratify and create layers based on their comparative densities. Since oil is less dense than water, oil will rise to the surface and can easily be taken out. To test this, you could put water in a bowl or a pot, then put in some cooking oil (it doesn't matter what kind). You will see for yourself that the oil remains on the surface of the water, because it is less dense.
