An old saying is that " oil and water don't mix. Explain the molecular basis for this saying

Motor oil floats on top of the water in a puddle or in an oil spill. No matter how much you mix oil and water, they always separate. Chemicals that don't mix are said to be immiscible. The reason this happens is because of the chemical nature of oil and water molecules

i had this on my unit activity, i can you if you are a plato student. are you a plato student?

the number of valence electrons for each molecule or ion is shown beneath the structure. remember hydrogen will not have more than two electrons. this hydrogen is part of a covalent bond (sharing two electrons). a double bond here would cause hydrogen to share four electrons with phosphorus.
