WHY DON’T OIL AND WATER NEVER MIX? EPI-5

 HEY GUYS!!! TODAY IS THE FIFTH EPISODE OF WHY SERIES. HOPE YOU LIKE TODAY'S QUESTION AND ANSWER. SO HERE IT IS....

WHY DON’T OIL AND WATER MIX?

Water and oil do not mix. They are said to be immiscible. This is because water is a polar molecule – its structure means that is has a positive charge one end and a negative charge the other end. Water molecules stick together because the positive end of one water molecule is attracted to the negative end of another.

The structure of an oil molecule is non polar. Its charge is evenly balanced rather than having one positive and one negative end.

This means oil molecules are more attracted to other oil molecules than water and water molecules are more attracted to each other than oil, so the two never mix.

BYEE EVERYONE. I MEET YOU AT 1:00 P.M. IN ANOTHER POST.
