If left open, yes. It's because alcohol is highly volatile. However, if kept in a closed container, it will not evaporate. Instead, it will be oxidized by the oxygen gas in the container to form the corresponding acid of the alcohol.
When you heat up a mixture of water and alcohol, they will each evaporate at different temperatures because they have different boiling points. Alcohol generally evaporates faster than water due to its lower boiling point, so it will vaporize first. If the mixture is heated enough, both water and alcohol will eventually evaporate completely.
water has a lower vapor pressure than alcohol or acetone, so it requires more heat energy to cause it to evaporate.
alcohol is made up of ethanol by fermentation though it is volatile in nature but is not a gas..
The evaporation time for rubbing alcohol at room temperature can vary based on factors like airflow, humidity, and the surface area exposed. Generally, it can take anywhere from a few minutes to around 30 minutes for rubbing alcohol to fully evaporate in an open environment. Higher temperatures and good ventilation can speed up this process.
Faster than ambient left alone? If compare to open air then it is faster with extra heat source of 100 Watt. If it had twice the bulb then it is faster than 1 bulb. Light bulb is the energy source and evaporation require energy. Provide extra energy help speed up evaporation.
When you microwave alcohol, it can quickly heat up and evaporate, potentially causing a fire or explosion due to the flammable nature of alcohol vapors. It is not safe to microwave alcohol.

Evaporate
No, alcohol does not help hairspray evaporate. In fact, it does the complete opposite. Because hairspray is made up of mostly alcohol, adding more alcohol will just end up distributing the hairspray even more so.
The air-freshener has an alcohol base, which evaporates at relatively low temperatures. Heat build-up inside the car causes the alcohol to evaporate - taking the scent of the other ingredients into the air.
No, it is not safe to heat up alcohol in the microwave as it can create a fire hazard due to the flammable nature of alcohol vapors.
The sweat absorbs the heat from your skin in order to evaporate.
No, heating up rubbing alcohol can be dangerous as it is flammable and can produce harmful vapors.
No - the alcohol in hand sanitizer is very weak - just enough to make the fluid evaporate quickly after use. The alcohol would evaporate much quicker than your body could ever absorb it into your skin.
In broad terms, it is the vapor pressure of the liquid in question- alcohol has a high vapor pressure, and will evaporate quickly. Oil has a low vapor pressure, and evaporates slowly. Evaporation will speed up as temperature (heat from the sun) increases, or as air movement (breezes) increases.
evaporate the liquid- heat the water up so it turn into gas.
