Someliquidshavetendencyto to get turned intovapor form at normal room temperature and pressure.Our cloths became dry due to escape of water molecules in air. Hot and dry air make water more volatile. Gasoline (petrol)is volatile as it rapidly turn into vapor andkerosene is not. Alcohol is also volatile. In high altitude, due to less atmospheric pressure all these becomes more volatile. Higher the boiling point, less volatile the substance is.

What is a volatile gas?
Volatility in the context of chemistry, physics and thermodynamics is a measure of the tendency of a substance to vaporize. It has also been defined as a measure of how readily a substance vaporizes. At a given temperature, substances with higher vapor pressures will vaporize more readily than substances with a lower vapor pressure. Although usually applying to liquids, volatility can apply to solid materials such as dry ice (solid carbon dioxide) and ammonium chloride, which can change directly from solid to vapor without becoming liquid. The direct transition of a solid to a vapor is called sublimation.A "volatile gas" is a technically incorrect term, used often due to the fact that the end result of volatility is the production of a gas. Hence a "volatile gas" makes no sense since the gas is already in the gaseous phase and cannot be volatile in nature. You will usually refer to a volatile liquid or solid (with both being able to convert into gases).An example of a highly volatile liquid (will evaporate quickly) is diethyl ether. An example of a highly volatile solid is dry ice.
The process of distilling volatile solids is called?
