I don't know what these samples are of, but somethings just dissolve in oil but not in water. That's one of the properties they have.

Does salad oil dissolve in water?
No. Oil will dissolve in fatty (hydrophobic) liquids, not in hydrophilics like water.
Why does Mineral oil lubricant dissolve latex?
oil and latex are nonpolar molecules so they are able to interactwhich causes it to dissolve while polar molecules cant interract with non polar so water wont dissollve it.
Name a molecule that does not dissolve well in water?
oil does not dissolve at all in water.
Why does water not dissolve motor oil?
because oil is nonpolar and water is polar
Does lubricating oil and water dissolve together?
No, lubricating oil does not dissolve in water. Because water is very polar and lubricating oil is nonpolar, it is not energetically favorable for oil to dissolve in water. The reasoning behind this is that water's strong hydrogen bonds must be broken in order for the oil to dissolve, and because only weaker bonds are formed in the process, it takes too much energy for this process to occur.
Can cottonseed oil dissolve in mineral oil?
No
Do naphthalene crystals dissolve in mineral oil?
YES
What color is iodine when dissolve in mineral oil?
purple.
Why mineral oil dissolve in hexane and not in water?
Polar substances are miscible (will dissolve) in each other and non-polar substances will dissolve in each other. "Like dissolves like!" Mineral oil is non-polar. Hexane is a six carbon chain and is also non-polar. Water on the other hand is polar because it contains an electronegative oxygen.

Why doesnt oil dissolve in ocean water?
The reason why oil doesn't dissolve in ocean water is because oil is nonpolar and water is polar.
Why cant water dissolve compounds such as oil?
Because oil is very complex, and water can not dissolve such complex structures.
Name a molecule that does not dissolve well in water?
oil does not dissolve at all in water.
Why should you not expect the halides ions to dissolve in mineral oil?
halide ions strongly interact with the counter-ions. However, mineral oil is non-polar. To dissolve the halide ions (and the counter-ions) into mineral oil would drastically raise system energy. Thus it does not work. More simply, halide ions have a charge and won't easily dissolve in non-polar substances, since like-dissolves-like.
Why oil and water dissolve?
the density of oil is more than the water.so,they will never dissolve with each other, rather the oil will float over the water.
Which liquid does not dissolve in water?
Oil
