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.
