What happens when oil and water mix
Accepted Answer
When oil and water are mixed, they form a heterogeneous mixture, meaning that they do not mix together uniformly. The oil will float on top of the water due to its lower density. The two liquids will not dissolve into each other because they are immiscible, meaning that they do not mix together in any significant amount.
