A liquid that is slow to evaporate.


What are some properties of hydrocarbons?

1- they are either gases , volatile liquids, or soft solids 2-they are insoluble in water 3-they are low melting or low boiling


What term describes liquids that evaporate slowly?

The simple answer is "volatile" means - evaporates qucker.... In more detail though, volatile liquids have high vapor pressures at the existing conditions than non-volatile liquids. Because they have high vapor pressures, if the gas they are in contact with (usually the atmosphere is the gas of interest) is not already saturated with the vapor of the liquid, there is a stronger driving force for moving from the liquid to gas phase, i.e. to move toward equilibrium, than for a non-volatile liquid. Rates of evaporation and diffusion of the vapor away from the surface of the liquid can actually be written in terms of the difference in Gibbs Free energy in the liquid and vapor phases of the volatile substance - although such exercises in non-equilibrium thermodynamics are generally limited to a pretty small group of people doing research along those lines.
