Why does acetone dissolve in water?
Acetone will float in water because it has a lower density than water. A few other liquids which will float on water are: ethanol, ether, methylated spirits and olive oil. Some that will sink in water are: chloroform and mercury.
Ethyl alcohol soluble in chloroform?
It is only a mixture of the two liquids.
Examples of miscible liquids?
Two miscible liquids are: Alcohol and water.Sorry if this isn't what you wanted.
How do you separate chloroform using the separating funnel?
A separating funnel is especially designed for separating liquids such as chloroform. So long as a person follows the instructions that came with it and does pour the liquid carefully then it will work.
Is the vapor pressure of water and acetone different?
The three liquids have different densities. Water has a density of 1g/mL. Acetone has a density of 0.791g/mL. Ethanol has the density of 0.789g/mL. Also, ethanol has the strong smell that resembles one of nail polish remover. Ethanol is used in alcohol. Acetone is practically a type of acid.
Examples of volatile liquids?
A Volatile liquid is any liquid that can be vaporised quickly. This does not mean they are necessarily flammable. Examples - Water Chloroform Hexane Acetone Petrol methylated spirits alcohol..........
Is acetone a water soluble liquid?
Acetone and water are miscible liquids.

What are some of the liquids that are bad for you and say what type of the liquids they are?
chloroform - anesthetic. benzoylchloride , acetylchloride , bromine in aceticacid - lactogens
Why acetone have more cooling effect than water?
Acetone has a lower boiling pt. than water because it has a higher vapor pressure. Liquids boil at the temperature where their vapor pressure is equal to the atmoshperic pressure. The temperature that acetone must get to, such that its v.p. is equal to the pressure of the atmosphere, is lower than what is required for water. Therefore, acetone has a lower B.P.

Which liquids can make fire?
It is recommended to use an oil bath in a ventilated hood.

What are some liquids that can be boiled?
All liquids can be boiled. At normal atmospheric pressure, water boils at 100 degrees C, alcohol at 78 and acetone at 56 degrees C. Each pure liquid has its own boiling temperature. Obviously, heating alcohol or acetone would have to be done with strict safety precautions to prevent fire. Impure liquids such as milk can also be boiled, but the heat may cause chemical changes as well. We all know heated milk tastes different from cold milk.
Are there liquids on Mars?
No, it doesn't have enough atmospheric pressure to support liquids.
What evaporates faster water or nail polish?
At standard temperature and pressure in a normal atmosphere, acetone will evaporate faster than water. Evaporation rates of various liquids are frequently specified relative to the evaporation rate of butyl acetate at 20 C. By that measurement, the evaporation rate of acetone is 5.6 and the evaporation rate of water is 0.3.
