Best Answer

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.

The density of the oils varies with each type and temperature. The range is from 0.91 to 0.93 g/cm3 between the temperatures of 15 °C and 25 °C. Comparing to water, whose density is 1.00 g/ml, cooking oil is less dense.

It all varies in the temperature that the oil is in. So if the temperature decreases, the density decreases. Understand? OK
