Hello Sachin ,
The solution of oleic acid spreads very fast on the surface of
water .
It forms thin layer with some thickness of only one molecule . Why because oleic acid has
low density compared to water
so , this is the reason why oleic acid float on water .
It belongs to category called lipids generally these are commonly called as "Fat Molecule" it have both hydrophilic (Molecules which are dissolves in the water ) and hydrophobic (Molecules which are not soluble in water) parts .
I think this answer will helps you lot .
All the best !!!!
