Answer:

Why does a beaker disappear in oil?

If you submerge regular glass in vegetable oil, the light is refracted between the oil and the glass surface, allowing you to see the glass through the oil. ... The Pyrex® glass has the same angle of refraction as the vegetable oil, so the light bends at the same angle. As a result, the Pyrex® glass seems invisible.
