Liquids mix when the intermolecular forces between molecules of different liquids are similar and can overcome any repulsive forces. Liquids that do not mix typically have different intermolecular forces, leading to limited interactions between molecules and preventing a homogeneous mixture.

The reason why some liquids mix while others don't is due to their chemical composition. For example, oil does not mix with water because the molecules do not blend.
