Physical changes of oil and water?
Oil and water do not mix because they have different polarities. When oil and water are mixed, they separate into distinct layers due to their different densities. This separation is a physical change where the molecules of each substance retain their original properties.
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 change?
Mixing oil and water is a physical change because no new substances are formed. The molecules of oil and water remain the same, they are just physically mixed together.
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.
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.
Why is using detergent and water to clean oil a physicl change?
Using detergent and water to clean oil is a physical change because it does not alter the chemical composition of the oil. The oil is simply being physically separated and removed from the surface it was on, but it remains the same substance chemically.
Is oil and water being shaken together to make salad dressing a chemical change?
chemical change. the dressing and mayonnaise changed completely to form the sauce.
Is oil change is physical and chemical?
physical change
Is Boiling oil a physical change or a chemical change?
Physical ... it's only a state change. Cool it and it reverts to its old condition.
Why pumping oil is physical change?
Pumping oil is considered a physical change because it involves a change in state or location of the oil without altering its chemical composition. The oil remains the same substance before and after pumping, only its position or state has changed.
Is mixing oil and vinegar a chemical or a physical change?
physical- there's no chemical change.
When oil is burning its a chemical or physical change?
It is a chemical change.
