Its not difficult (it happens automatically), its just tedious since they're both liquids.
No, you cannot separate oil from water using a spoon. Oil and water do not mix, so they will not combine easily. To separate them, you can use a method like allowing them to settle and then manually removing the oil layer with a tool like a pipette.
By separating funnel, pour the mixture of mustard oil and water into the separating funnel. Mustard oil being lighter than water floats on top. The stopcock is opened and water is allowed to separate out. The principle is that immiscible liquid separates out in layers depending upon the densities.
It is virtually impossible to separate salt and water with a sieve unless the two materials have not been touched. This is because when salt is combined with water, it dissolves, and then it is mixed in with the water. To separate these two materials, you have to let the water evaporate, so then the salt is left.
Oil and water do not mix because they have different molecular structures. Oil is nonpolar and water is polar, so they cannot form stable bonds with each other. This difference in polarity causes them to repel each other, resulting in the formation of separate layers.
Add some amount of copper sulphate(CuSO4) in the mixture. the water molecules get attracted to CuSO4 molecules and it will turn into blue colour(CuSO4.5H2O) The oil will be in normal colour so you can differentiate them.
water is a polar molecule. so it doesn't attract to oil (another polar molecule)

Oil and water do not react chemically; they are immiscible due to differences in polarity. Oil is nonpolar and water is polar, so they do not mix and form separate layers instead.
Separating oil from water is very easy, but extremely dangerous! What you must do is set the oil on fire. Either that, or place the oil at a very high temperature so that the water boils out of it. The first method removes the oil. The second method removes the water.
Oil is a nonpolar substance and water is a polar substance, so the water can't mix with or dissolve the oil.
Oil can be separated from a mixture of oil and water using techniques such as centrifugation, skimming, or using a separating funnel. These methods rely on the differences in density and immiscibility of oil and water to physically separate them. Once separated, the oil can be further refined or processed accordingly.
Oil and water naturally do not mix, so separating them is not too difficult.You have to just pour the upper part of the solution (the oil) into other container. This process is also known as decantation.
True.
The oil and water do not chemically react with each other, so they are considered immiscible. This means they do not form a homogeneous mixture, but rather separate into distinct layers due to the difference in their densities. The variable in this scenario would be the ability to observe the two separate layers when oil and water are mixed.
Liquid water is held together by hydrogen bonds. Oils and fats not have any polar part and so for them to dissolve in water they would have to break some of water's hydrogen bonds. ... Water will not do this so the oil is forced to stay separate from the water.
Oil and water do not mix because they have different polarities. The oil is non-polar, while water is polar, so they separate into distinct layers when mixed. This is due to the difference in their molecular structures and properties.
By separating funnel, pour the mixture of mustard oil and water into the separating funnel. Mustard oil being lighter than water floats on top. The stopcock is opened and water is allowed to separate out. The principle is that immiscible liquid separates out in layers depending upon the densities.
