Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
Few substances when mixed with water will completely disappear or dissolve in water. Such substances are called soluble substances. Substances that do not mix with water and do not disappear even after stirring for a long time are called insoluble. Oil is less dense than water and usually floats on water. It is also insoluble in water and forms a separate layer.
The correct statement would be, oil does not mix with water.
