Solution

The correct option is B Petrol
Liquids which do not mix with each other and form separate layers when left disturbed are called immiscible liquids.

Milk, ink and vinegar dissolve completely in water and form solutions. Thus, they are miscible in water.

However, petrol does not mix with water and it forms a separate layer on top of water. Thus, it is immiscible in water.
