Oil is not as dense as water. So, even when they are mixed, the water molecules can still slide down in between the oil molecules, thereby causing the oil molecules to form a layer on the surface of the water.
Oil and water can be effectively mixed in cosmetics by using emulsifiers. Emulsifiers are molecules that have both hydrophilic (water-attracting) and lipophilic (oil-attracting) properties, allowing them to bind oil and water together. This creates a stable mixture in which the oil and water do not separate.
When oil and water are mixed together, the oil rises to the top because it is less dense than water. Oil and water do not mix well due to differences in their chemical properties, resulting in the oil forming a separate layer on top of the water.
Because of the polarity of the water molecule, hydrogen bonds form between them. This results in the higher surface tension. Oil is nonpolar, so hydrogen bonds do not form between the molecules, so the surface tension is less.
Oil and water mixed together is called an emulsion. However, since oil and water do not easily mix due to their different chemical properties, the emulsion will eventually separate into distinct layers.
Liquid mixed with ochre can vary, but commonly water, oil, or egg are used to create paint or pigment. Water is often used for watercolor painting, oil for oil painting, and egg (as in egg tempera) for traditional painting techniques.
Water in a saucer will evaporate faster than water mixed with oil. This is because the surface area of the water exposed to air is greater in a saucer compared to water mixed with oil. Additionally, the thickness of the water layer will affect the rate of evaporation, with a thinner layer evaporating faster.
Water is heavier than oil. Oil floats on water.
This is because the oil and water want to interact as little with eachother as possible since the waters intramolecular forces are much stronger than an oil's. By forming a mono layer the surface area of the oil and water molecules are minimized as opposed to being mixed and having much higher surface area contact.

Not a lot, water and oil don't mix and so the oil will float on top of the water.
Due to the property of surface tension water surface would act as a stretched membrane. So water skaters, mosquitoes could easily walk on the surface. If oil is mixed with water then surface tension would fall and mosquito cannot breed. That is why we sprinkle oil in fine droplets on stagnant water

Oil is less dense than water and has a lower surface tension. When a drop of oil is placed on water, it spreads out to increase its surface area and minimize contact with water molecules. This process is driven by the intermolecular forces between the oil and water molecules.
I think it depends on the mixtures. When I mixed a store bought solution of iodine (2.5% iodine and 2.5% potassium iodide) in water it was brown. But when I added heavy mineral oil and mixed them, the mineral oil layer was a brilliant pink/purple colour. Really impressive. NR Pure iodine is violet. It can act as an electron acceptor (an acid). When iodine is in a solvent that doesn't donate electrons it stays violet. When it is in water or ethanol the iodine accepts electrons from the oxygen atom which then affects the wavelength of visible light that it absorbs, this means that the colour changes.
Water mixed with oil? Oil mixed with water? White smoke out of tailpipe? Lack of compression on 2 adjacient cylinders?
Oil pastels are not water-soluble, so when mixed with water, the oil pastels will not dissolve or blend. Instead, the water will bead up and repel the oil pastels, resulting in a resist effect where the water-based medium does not adhere to the surface covered in oil pastels.
