Yes, if you place a cupful of water and a cupful of gasoline in a sunny window. Both cups have the same volume of liquid in them. 24 hours later you observe that both cups have less liquid in them, but there is less gasoline than water, why? Because gasoline, or petrol, is supposed to evaporate in room temperature, gas does not freeze but it can evaporate slower by colder temperature.

At what Temperature does gasoline evaporate?

In theory, any liquid will evaporate to some extent at any normal Temperature. Evaporation rate for any fluid is, for all practical purposes, determined by only two factors ... the Vapor Pressure of the fluid at the ambient Temperature, and the Degree of Saturation of atmosphere into which it is evaporating.In short, the Higher the Temperature of the Gasoline, the faster it will evaporate from an open container.


What kinds of liquids could evaporate?

Water, alcohol, acetone, and gasoline are common liquids that can evaporate. Evaporation occurs when a liquid turns into a gas at a temperature lower than its boiling point.
