The attraction betweenisopropyl alcohol molecules is not as strong as that betweenwater molecules. Therefore,isopropyl alcohol moleculesevaporate faster than water molecules. The paper towel strip that was soaked in alcohol will dry faster than the strip soaked in water.

→Ether will evaporate faster than Alcohol.

→Ethanol and isopropanol boil at a lower temperature than water, which generally means that they willevaporate quicker than water.
→The boiling temperature is largely determined by attractive interactions between the liquid molecules
→Ethanol and isopropanol each only participate in 2 hydrogen bonds.
