What is Immiscible? Definition, Examples, and Properties

Immiscible refers to two or more substances that cannot mix or blend together because they have different physical or chemical properties. In other words, they are not soluble in each other.

For example, oil and water are immiscible because they have different densities and polarities, so they don't mix together even though they are both liquids. Instead, they will separate into distinct layers.

Other examples of immiscible substances include:

* Air and water
* Oil and vinegar
* Sand and water
* Mercury and air

In general, two substances are considered immiscible if they have a significant difference in their physical or chemical properties, such as density, polarity, or solubility.
