Why Atlantic and Pacific Oceans Don't Mix?
Simple.
Because AumSum is Standing in Between.
Oh! AumSum.
The answer is density. Density is the measure of mass present per unit volume.
Lesser the density, lighter will be the object.
The Atlantic ocean contains much more salt as a result of which it is much denser.
On the other hand, the water in the Pacific ocean is less salty hence its density is much lower.
Now, this difference in density due to salinity creates a kind of barrier called a Halocline between the two oceans.
As a result both the oceans don't mix that easily.
