These are some of the reasons why ether and acetone are stored in cool places:

1. These liquids are highly volatile: This means that ether and acetone easily evaporate at normal room temperatures. Therefore, by keeping these liquids in cool temperatures evaporation is prevented.

2. These liquids are highly inflammable: It means that ether and acetone can easily catch fire or be set on fire. Storing them in a cool place only reduces the chances of fire break out.
