No, it is not a chemical reaction. Chemical reactions occur when one or more chemical compound reacts to give one or more different chemical compounds. When oil and water are mixed, they can be separated to give the original amounts of oil and water without any new chemical compounds <==============================================3

Is mixing oil and water chemical or physical?
It is a physical change because the oil and the water do not change in chemical composition.
What Chemical change is mixing flake graphite with oil?
your mixing two chemicals together so of course its a chemical change
Is mixing oil and vinegar a physical or chemical reaction?
Physical. Anything that can be separated by physical means is a physical change, and you can separate oil from vinegar by skimming it off the top. You are also not making a new substance. In order to have a chemical reaction occur you must produce a new substance, not just a mixture. For example, vinegar and baking soda will produce carbon dioxide gas.
Is mixing oil and water a chemical change?
Oil floating on water is not a "change", so asking whether it's a physical change or a chemical one is nonsense. To the extent there's any meaning at all to the question, it's a phenomenon caused by the physical properties of the two materials.
What reaction does water have with soil?
water and oil have a huge reaction it causes it to have flam
Is mixing and separating oil and water a chemical reaction?
No, it is a physical process.
What is the chemical reaction for oil and water?
Oil and water do not chemically react.
Is mixing oil and water chemical or physical?
It is a physical change because the oil and the water do not change in chemical composition.
Is mixing oil and water a physical or a chemical change?
When oil and water mix it is due to an emulsifier being added to the solution. The emulsifier has one hydrophobic tail which will attach to the oil and one hydrophilic tail which attaches to the water. It is more of a chemical change than a physical one since the oil and water don't change state, however they will not form an emulsification without an aid so its technically not due to a chemical reaction between the water and oil alone either.
Hot oil will splutter when droplets of water is dripped into it?
oil is sensitive to water hence, they are showing chemical reaction.
Is separating oil and water a chemical reaction?
This is not a chemical reaction. When this happens it is clearly just called Chemical Seperation as the two chemicals do not bind due to density.
Oil and water mixing?
no oil and water do not mix
Is mixing oil and vinegar into salad dressing a chemical reaction?
yes because salad dressing is a suspension of vinegar that will separate into layers if left undisturbed.
What Chemical change is mixing flake graphite with oil?
your mixing two chemicals together so of course its a chemical change
Will mixing oil and baking soda make a explosion?
no reaction
