No lubricating oils are not. The reason is that they have to be able to withstand heat from friction of moving engine parts etc. They have very high boiling points and thus very low volatility.

Is lubricating oil volatile?
Lubricating oil is NOT volatile.
Who require more temperature for easily evaporation its volatile liquid or non volatile liquid?
A volatile liquid evaporates easily and so requires lesser temperature. A non-volatile liquid requires more temperature to evaporate

Benzene is a colourless, pungent and volatile liquid.Chloroform is a colourless, pungent and volatile liquid. Diethyl Ether is a colourless, pungent and volatile liquid. Hydrogen Cyanide is a colourless, pungent and volatile liquid. Toluene is a colourless, pungent and volatile liquid.See the Web Links to the left for more information about ammonia, acetone, benzene, chloroform, diethyl ether, hydrogen cyanide andtoluene.
What happen to the freezing point when a non volatile solute added to a volatile liquid?
The frezzing point is lowered.
Does lubricating oil and water dissolve together?
No, lubricating oil does not dissolve in water. Because water is very polar and lubricating oil is nonpolar, it is not energetically favorable for oil to dissolve in water. The reasoning behind this is that water's strong hydrogen bonds must be broken in order for the oil to dissolve, and because only weaker bonds are formed in the process, it takes too much energy for this process to occur.
Is lubricating oil volatile?
Lubricating oil is NOT volatile.
Is oil in a car a gas?
No, the lubricating oil is a liquid
What is liquid slugging of the compressor?
Large quantities of liquid refrigerant enter the compressor and then mix with the lubricating oil in the compressors sump.
Oil would be considered a nonviolatile liquid while gasoline would be considered volatile?
Volatile simply means it evaporates easily. Gasoline evaporates; it's the evaporating gas that burns, not the liquid. Oil doesn't evaporate easily, so it isn't volatile.
Why is it not possible to use crude oil directly?
It is not volatile, it consists of thick, viscous liquid.
What is the Difference between grades of lubricating oil?
Lubricating Oil Is A Thick Fatty Oil (Especially One To Be Used For Lubricating Factory Machinery)
What different types of lubricating oil are available?
Lubricant oils include vegetable oil, silicone, fluorocarbons, polyolefins, grease, graphite, tungsten oil, molybdenum and mineral oils. Lubricating oils can be purchased in liquid or dry versions depending on their intended application.
Is lubricating a solid liquid or gas?
None of the above, lubricating is a verb, something you do. However a "lubricant" is usually a liquid.
What does extraction of a plant's volatile liquid materials yield?
Essential Oils
Who require more temperature for easily evaporation its volatile liquid or non volatile liquid?
A volatile liquid evaporates easily and so requires lesser temperature. A non-volatile liquid requires more temperature to evaporate
What is the shape of a volatile liquid?
The shape of a volatile liquid, or any other liquid, will be that of a fixed volume that takes on the shape of its container.
