Petrol evaporates faster than water at room temperature. this is because the boiling point of petrol is 95oC and water's boiling point is 100oC. As the boiling point of water is higher than that of petrol, petrol evaporates faster as it achieves its boiling point before water does.

∙ 12y agoperfume evaporate more quickly because it is defused in air so many things pick up its gas(liquid),but in water it doesn't diffuse so it evaporate less quickly.

Why petrol evaporate when kept in air?
Petrol contains volatile compounds that have low boiling points, so they easily evaporate when exposed to air. As the air around the petrol is warmer than the petrol itself, the vaporization process is accelerated, causing the petrol to evaporate.
How can you separate petrol and diesel from crude oil?
Fractional distillation. Petrol and diesel evaporate at different temperatures.
Does methylated spirit evaporate faster than water?
Yes, methylated spirit (ethanol) evaporates faster than water because it has a lower boiling point. Ethanol boils at 78.37°C, while water boils at 100°C. This means ethanol molecules have higher kinetic energy and can escape into the air more easily.
Does pink lemonade evaporate faster then salt water?
Yes it does.
Why does petrol spray burn faster than petrol in a bowl?
It burns quicker because when it is sprayed, the oxygen particles (0) completely overwhelm and surround the petrol particles. Oxygen is a compulsory supply in order to make something burn. And the reason for why petrol does not burn quickly when it is in a bowl is because the Oxygen particles only surround the surface of the petrol rather than surrounding the whole thing like when it is sprayed. ()-> a circle -> oxygen particles collide from all sides of the droplets sprayed-> burns quicker |_|-> petrol in a bowl-> oxygen particles can only collide into the surface of the petrol-> consumes more time to burn the petrol.
Does spirit evaporate faster than water?
Yes, spirit evaporate faster.
Does spirit and water evaporate at same rate?
Liquids differ in the rate at which they evaporate.
How does petrol evaporate faster than water?
It is more volatile than water.
Does methylated spirit evaporate faster than water?
Yes, methylated spirit (ethanol) evaporates faster than water because it has a lower boiling point. Ethanol boils at 78.37°C, while water boils at 100°C. This means ethanol molecules have higher kinetic energy and can escape into the air more easily.
What evaporates the fastest water mineral spirite or isopropyl alcohol?
White spirit evaporate faster.
Does petrol evaporate?
Yes, petrol evaporates at normal temperatures. When exposed to the air, petrol will slowly evaporate and turn into vapor. This process is why you can smell petrol when you are near it.
Why does surgical spirit evaporate faster than water?
The ethanol enthalpy of vaporization is lower compared to water.
Why petrol evaporate when kept in air?
Petrol contains volatile compounds that have low boiling points, so they easily evaporate when exposed to air. As the air around the petrol is warmer than the petrol itself, the vaporization process is accelerated, causing the petrol to evaporate.
Where did the water evaporate faster?
Water evaporate faster in countries with a warm climate.
What liquid evaporate?
Many liquids evaporate, one example is water
Which would evaporate faster ginger ale or salt water?
Ginger ale will evaporate faster but when it does evaporate it produces smoke
How can liquid evaporate faster?
Heat it faster. I'm not sure which, but Salt either makes it boil/evaporate faster or slower...
