Oil floats on to of water because?
oil is less dense than water, so it floats on top of the water. This is due to the difference in molecular structure and weight of the two substances. Oil and water do not mix easily because they are immiscible, resulting in oil forming a separate layer on top of the water.
Why does oil float on the surface of water?
Oil and water do not mix because oil is less dense than water. The difference in density causes oil to float on the surface of water. Additionally, oil molecules are nonpolar, while water molecules are polar, which further prevents them from mixing.
If you pour some oil into a glass of water will it sink or float?
The oil will float on top of the water because it is less dense than water. Oil and water do not mix well due to their different densities and polarities, causing the oil to form a distinct layer on top of the water.
How would a substance with a density of 0.95 gmL behave when placed in both oil and water?
When two substances do not mix with each other, the less dense substance will float on the more dense substance. Vegetable oil floats on water. If the mystery substance with d = 0.95 g/mL does not mix with water, then it should float on top of water. If the mystery substance with d = 0.95 g/mL does not mix with vegetable oil, then it should sink in vegetable oil.
What are immiscible substances?
Immiscible means incapable of mixing, but you'd (you might) have to ask further incase there is a special solution called 'immiscible solution' of which its inability to mix is only one aspect of it.
Can you mix water with oil?
No we cannot mix water with oil.
What is the definition between the oil mix to water?
Oil will not mix with water.
In an oil spill why does the oil not mix with the sea water?
Oil does not mix with water, not even salty sea water.
What can not mix with water?
Oil can't mix with water.
What can mix with water?
Oil can't mix with water.
Oil and water mixing?
no oil and water do not mix
Other than density why can oil and water not mix?
oil and water never mix together. water is heavier than oil. so,oil float on the water.
Why does nt water and oil mix?
Water and oil does not mix because water is molecule and oil is made of hydrocarbon chains. Only molecule substances can mix with molecule solutes.
Do oil mix with water?
Water and olive oil are not miscible.
What happens when you shake up oil and water?
Oil and water do not mix due to their different densities and polarities. When shaken together, the oil and water will temporarily mix and form small droplets of oil in the water, but they will quickly separate back into distinct layers due to their immiscibility.
What will not mix with water?
oil
What does not mix with oil?
