RAM is volatile, because RAM requires a continuous flow of power to be able to retain the memory that is being stored within the RAM. Meaning, that whenever power is turned off and there is no longer a flow of electricity all data that is stored within the RAM is erased.
( Read below for more information regarding what type of memory is non-volatile)
Now the type of storage device that is non-volatile is your hard-drive. It is non-volatile, because even when there is not a constant flow of electricity to the computer all of the memory that was stored in the hard drive stays on the hard drive till you want it removed.
( A tip below to help you remember what is volatile and what is non-volatile)
a good tip that I have figured out that will help you remember the difference between volatile and non-volatile is to look at the ( v ) in the word volatile. You can think of the v as representing volts. so if you see something that says volatile just think of the v, and you will remember that since it is volatile it requires power to hold the memory. When non-volatile is said look for the ( v ) again and think of the word non-volatile as it was saying no volts, because volts are not needed for something that is non-volatile for it to retain its memory. I hope these tips help you out and you have a good day.

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.
