There’s something very important about oil that you need to know: oil doesn’t mix with water! That’s why oil spills in the ocean float on the surface and why throwing water on a grease fire is just going to make the fire worse. Now that you recognize that oil and water just don’t mix, let’s have some fun with them.

Water is more dense than the oils but why do they not mix? That is because water is polar and oil is nonpolar and unlike magnets opposites don't attract.
