miscibility

Miscibility refers to the ability of two substances to completely mix and form a single, uniform solution without separating over time. When liquids are miscible, they blend seamlessly, like alcohol and water. Factors influencing miscibility include the chemical properties of the substances, such as polarity and molecular structure. If two substances are not miscible, they tend to separate into layers, like oil and water. Understanding miscibility is important in chemistry, pharmacy, and engineering, as it affects how substances interact, dissolve, and are used in various applications.
