Detailed Solution

  • The substances which do not get dissolved or mixed in water are said to be insoluble in water.
  • Coconut oil is not water-soluble. 
  • Due to the difference in density, it floats on the surface of the water. Kerosene, coconut oil, and mustard oil do not dissolve in water, even on shaking. 
  • They separate after some time forming two different layers.

Therefore, 'Coconut oil' is the correct response.
