Explanation:
Petroleum is lighter than water therefore this liquid floats over water. It is also insoluble in water, inducing it to stay above the surface of the water. Presence of hydrocarbons in the eclectic mix makes the petroleum substance quite light in comparison to water. Thus, when there is an oil spill, a thin layer of liquid is formed over the surface.
