Question

Dillon shakes a bottle of oil and vinegar salad dressing. The dressing mixes temporarily, but does not stay mixed. What property of the ingredients makes them separate?

Answer 1

C. The oil and vinegar have different chemical properties.

Answer 2

The correct answer is "due to their chemical compositions".

Step-by-step explanation:

Oil and vinegar do not dissolve into each other due to the chemical properties of each compound, which make them insoluble in each other. The liquid with the lowest density, which is oil, floats on top of the liquid. The vinegar that has the highest density is deposited at the bottom.

Have a nice day!
