Compare your experiment results with the cordial and water photo and state two findings from your experiment.

4. Draw conclusions.

a) Compare the results of your investigation to what you observed in the photograph of the cordial and water.
In the investigation with oil and water, the liquids do not mix and form two distinct layers, with oil floating on top of the water. In contrast, cordial and water typically mix completely to form a single, homogeneous solution.

b) Write two sentences to say what you found out in your experiment.
The experiment shows that oil and water are immiscible, meaning they do not mix together. Oil is less dense than water, causing it to separate and float on top of the water layer.
