### Step-by-Step Solution 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks about liquids that form separate layers when left undisturbed. This indicates that the liquids do not mix with each other. 2. **Identifying Examples**: A common example of such liquids is oil and water. These two liquids are known to not mix; when combined, they separate into layers. 3. **Observation of Behavior**: When oil and water are mixed and then left undisturbed, the oil, which is less dense than water, will float on top of the water. This results in two distinct layers. ...
