Question

Which out of petrol and water undergoes evaporation at faster rate? Explain why

Answer 1

Petrol because it forms vapors

Answer 2

Hey dear,

● Answer -
Petrol will undergo evaporation faster than water.

● Explaination -
- Water molecules show hydrogen bonding and thus possess strong intermolecular forces of attraction.
- Thus water has high boiling point & evaporate slowly.
- Petrol molecules possess weak intermolecular forces of attraction due to absence of -bonding.
- Thus petrol has low boiling point & evaporate faster.

Thanks for asking.. is
