Ethanol Oil and Water Water A student combines equal volumes of ethanol and water in a beaker and stirs the mixture. The student repeats this process but with equal volumes of oil and water in a different beaker. The student observes the contents of the beakers after they are mixed, as shown in the diagram. Which TWO of the following statements are consistent with the student's observations? Ethanol molecules and water molecules are both polar, so they mix well with each other. B Ethanol molecules are nonpolar and water molecules are polar, so they mix well with each other. Oil molecules and water molecules are both polar, so they do not mix well with each other. D Oil molecules are nonpolar and water molecules are polar, so they do not mix well with each other.

Suppose that you are closing a cabin in the north woods for the winter and you do not want the water in the toilet tank to freeze. You know that the temperature might get as low as 30.
