Question

If a white sheet of paper is stained with oil,the paper turns transparent.Why?

Answer 1

hi! The paper turns transparent because oil raises the transmissivity of light.It becomes amorphous. Both oil and paper have a similar refractive index so when oil fills the gaps between the paper and air then light is more easily transmitted through the paper. I hope this will help you!!!!

Answer 2
