Question

Explain Why- Oil does not mix in water. However,oil and water become homogeneous if a sufficient quantity of detergent is added​

Answer 1

Answer:

because it is lighter than water

Answer 2

This occurs because of the molecule of detergent. The molecules of detergent consist of two ends. One of its ends holds on to an oil molecule and the other end holds on to the water molecule. These opposing forces are responsible for dissolving the oil in water and thus producing a homogeneous mixture.
