i think you mean 'why does water have a greater density than oil?' Water is a polar substance because of hydrogen bonding that occurs between each H20 molecule. So imagine that these bonds pull the molecules closer together. So in the same volume you can get more molecules of water than you can of oil. This is because oil is non polar so therefore has no bonding between its molecules.
What else can I help you with?
Which one is denser water or baby oil?
no this is not true baby oil has more density than water.
What do you think you would see if equal volumes of water and oil were placed in identical graduated cylinders on opposite pans of a balance?
You would see that the water mass was greater than the oil mass, both volumes being equal.water mass greater than oil masswater density greater than oil densityoil specific gravity less than 1.0 , relative to waterTypical water density = 1.0 g per mLTypical oil density = 0.85 g per mL
If the mass of water is 4.5 times greater than the mass of helium how does the mass of a water molecule compare with the mass of a helium atom?
The mass of the water molecules is greater than the mass of the helium atoms. It just so happens I had the same question in science, and that's what I put down. It might be wrong, it might not. But I'd be at least at like 65-35% chance it's right.
Do 100 ml of gravel and 100 ml of water have the same mass?
No, the gravel sinks when placed in water and is therfore more dense than water. This means that given two equivalent volumes one of water , one of gravel, the mass of the gravel will be greater than that of the water.
Does water have greater density than oil?
Yes, water has a greater density than oil. Water is more dense because its molecules are closer together, while oil molecules are spread further apart. This is why water sinks in oil rather than mixing together.
What has a greater mass 50ml of water or 50ml of oil?
Oil
Is mass of one cup of oil equals to mass of one cup of water?
Since oil will float on top of water, we can assume that the weight (or mass) of water is greater than that of oil.
Why does water have more mass than oil?
Water has more mass than oil because water molecules are more tightly packed together and have a greater density than oil molecules. This means that the same volume of water will contain more mass compared to the same volume of oil. This is due to differences in molecular structure and composition between water and oil molecules.
Which is greater land or water?
Water has a larger surface area on the earth. Land has a greater mass.
Which one is denser water or baby oil?
no this is not true baby oil has more density than water.
Which has a greater density oil or vinegar?
vineger,because oil can flot on water which means its light but vineger is hever which stays on the grown

Which has a greater volume lead in water or glass in water?
This depends on the mass.
Which has greater density water or oil?
Oil is less dense Because its particles aren't as close together weighing it down. Water particles (H2O) are closer together (making the substance more dense) because they "want" to hydrogen bond with each other, which
Does water have a greater mass than lead?
water has less density than lead. Mass depends on its volume
What has a greater mass 1 liter of water or 1 liter of alcohol?
Water.
Does 1.00 Litters of water have a greater mass than 1.00 Litters of Gasoline?
Not sure that either water or gasoline have litters, but 1.00 litres of water does have greater mass than 1.00 litres of gasoline.
