Reason..
Nail polish removers contain acetone which has less intermolecular forces than water. This results in a higher vapor pressure which causes evaporation at a faster rate.
So, correct option is b) Nail polish remover has high rate of evaporation.

ANSWER :
The correct answer of this question among all the options is Nail Polish Remover.
So, the right choice is option (B).
REASONS -
1. Nail polish remover has acetone. In case of acetone, no hydrogen bonding can be seen between the molecules of acetone. So, they exhibit highest rate of evaporation among the given choices.
2. Acetone present in nail polish remover has a high rate of vapour pressure as they have very low intermolecular force of attraction.
