Who liquids form a single layer on mixing water and kerosene or water and glycerin and why is it so?

Water and glycerine form a single layer on mixing because both are very polar molecules and so they are "compatible" and miscible. Kerosene is very non polar and non compatible with water and so it is not miscible with water and forms two layers.

What is the chemical formula of kerosene?
Kerosene is not a single compound, but rather a mixture of hydrocarbons containing between about 12 and 15 carbon atoms. When crude oil is distilled, it is split into fractions according to boiling point. The lightest ones (up to 4 carbons) are gases. The lighter liquids (5 - 7 carbons or so) are used industrially as solvents, and the range between that and kerosene is more or less gasoline. Above kerosene (>15 carbons) are oils, after that the waxes, etc. etc. Anyway, kerosene is a medium-weight mix of hydrocarbons
When did the band Bush release 'glycerin'?
The band Bush released their song entitled 'Glycerine' on the 14th of November, 1995. The song was the fourth single on their debut album called 'Sixteen Stone'.
What are the uses for kerosene?
Ok now you can use kero in lamps,stoves,torpedo heaters, and 2 more applications at a ratio of 32:1 with transmission fluid you can use it in your diesel pickup truck, 1 ounce of ATF to 1 qt. kero,you can by it-self no ATF use it in a gasoline powered pushmower(my friend's dad did that) but buy it brand new with no gasoline in it 75% as powerful as gas.
How do you use miscibility in a sentence?
At low temperatures the two liquids were immiscible and lay less dense atop the more dense with a flat interface. But at elevated temperature the two showed complete miscibility: the interface disappeared and the molecules mixed randomly to form a single solution.
Is acid a liquid or a gas?
Acid is not any single substance but a class of substances. There are many different types of acid. They can be solids (such as citric acid) liquids (such as acetic acid), or gasses (such as hydrochloric acid) in their pure forms. An acidic solution is a liquid as it consists of an acid dissolved in water.
Which of the following liquids form a single layer on mixing?
water and kerosene
Does kerosene and petrol form a single layer on mixing?
Yes, they can be homogeneously mixed ('one layer' fluid) in each random ratio, but not with water.
What do you call the liquid which mixed with each other?
Immisisble liquides, Example: water+kerosene
Is kerosene saurated?
Kerosene is saturated, because it only contains single carbon-carbon covalent bonds. Kerosene is actually a mixture of more than one straight-chain or branched alkane hydrocarbons, but none of them feature double or triple bonds, so the Lewis structure indicates it is saturated.
What are the boiling points of petrol and kerosene?
-22f or -30c is the freezing point of kerosen

How can you change a dual control bathtub faucet to single control with a mixing valve?
The incoming hot and cold lines go to separate inlets on the mixing valve. The single output will go to both the spigot and the shower head.
Where are the fats and oils from that produces glycerin?
The fats and oils that produce glycerol are composed of triglycerides. A single molecule of glycerol has three molecules of fatty acids attached to it.
Is water a homogeneous mix?
Pure water is homogeneous. It is a single chemical compound, H2O ... no mixing required.
Why do girls try to be single?
Most girls prefer to be single to avoid heart break associated with relationships. But through mixing up one can learn and grow better.

Is pouring three liquids into a single container form distinct layers an examples of a chemical change?
No. It is a physical change. The layers occur because the three liquids have different densities. There is no chemical change taking place.
