It is not cooler, it feels cooler because acetone is far more volatile than water, so it absorbs more heat from your skin when you feel it evaporating from the skin (using it as nail polish remover)
What else can I help you with?
Is acetone thicker than water?
No, acetone is about the same viscosity as water.
What weighs more water or acetone?
Water weighs more than acetone. This is because water has a higher density than acetone, meaning that a given volume of water will have a greater mass compared to the same volume of acetone.
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.
How do you separate water alcohol and acetone?
To separate water, alcohol, and acetone, you can use fractional distillation. First, heat the mixture to vaporize the acetone, which has the lowest boiling point. Then cool and condense the acetone vapor, which can be collected separately. Next, heat the remaining liquid to vaporize the alcohol, which has a higher boiling point than acetone but lower than water. Finally, separate water from the mixture by distilling the remaining liquid, as water has the highest boiling point of the three compounds.
Why does acetone evaporate so fast?
Acetone evaporates faster than alcohol and water because alcohol and water contain intermolecular hydrogen bonding but acetone does not. This is the reason alcohol and water have higher boiling point than acetone and evaporate slower than it.

No, acetone is about the same viscosity as water.
What weighs more water or acetone?
Water weighs more than acetone. This is because water has a higher density than acetone, meaning that a given volume of water will have a greater mass compared to the same volume of acetone.
Why does acetone have a lower surface tension than water?
Acetone has a lower surface tension than water because it has weaker intermolecular forces due to its molecular structure. The molecules in acetone are less able to attract each other compared to water molecules, resulting in a lower surface tension.
Does caffeine dissolve in acetone?
Caffeine is soluble in water - but not HIGHLY soluble. You can dissolve a lot more caffeine in the same volume of water compared to what will dissolve in an equal volume of acetone. It dissolves better in hot acetone than in cold acetone.
What is the effect on boiling point if acetone is mixed in water?
The boiling point of water becomes decreased because acetone is highly volatile liquid its molecules decrease the effect of hydrogen bonding in water molecules therefore water becomes evaporated easily.
Why did water dried up first than acetone and alcohol?
water has a lower vapor pressure than alcohol or acetone, so it requires more heat energy to cause it to evaporate.

Why does water cause cooling?
Because the water is cooler the hot touch that you have causes the water to be cooler than what is is actually.
Is acetone a water soluble liquid?
Acetone and water are miscible liquids.
Why does acetone evaporate so fast?
Acetone evaporates faster than alcohol and water because alcohol and water contain intermolecular hydrogen bonding but acetone does not. This is the reason alcohol and water have higher boiling point than acetone and evaporate slower than it.
Why is this method effective in separating acetone from water?
This method works through the principle of distillation, which takes advantage of the difference in boiling points between acetone and water. Acetone has a lower boiling point than water, so when the mixture is heated, acetone vaporizes first and is collected, leaving water behind. This process effectively separates the two components based on their different physical properties.
