The reason why oil doesn't dissolve in ocean water is because oil is nonpolar and water is polar.
oil is nonpolar and water is polar
Because oil is very complex, and water can not dissolve such complex structures.
No
Oil does mix with other substances for instance if you had some pure ethanol, oil would dissolve in it.
Because the oil has a nonpolar molecule and water has a polar molecule.
I'm not sure what your asking but the term for substances that are unable to dissolve in water are called unsoluable.
Oil and sand are two substances that will not dissolve in water.
No. Oil will dissolve in fatty (hydrophobic) liquids, not in hydrophilics like water.
Nonpolar substances, such as oil and wax, do not dissolve in water due to their different chemical properties. Additionally, certain types of plastics, metals, and insoluble fiber also do not dissolve in water.
They cant oil seeps to the bottom of the ocean. So it doesnt matter as long as the pipe is plugged
Because oil is very complex, and water can not dissolve such complex structures.
oil does not dissolve at all in water.
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.
