Acetone or petrol have very low boiling temperature or they quickly converts into their vapour form
They absorb energy in form of heat from. the palm and evaporate quickly causing reduction of heat on palm that leads to cooling effect on or palm

Answer:

Acetone, petrol and perfume are volatile liquids (which can change into vapours easily). When we put some acetone , petrol or perfume on our palm, the acetone, petrol or perfume evaporate rapidly and our palm feels cold. This is due to the fact that to change from the liquid to the vapour state, acetone, petrol or perfume require latent heat of vaporisation. The acetone, petrol or perfume take this latent heat of vaporisation from our palm. The palm loses heat and feels cold.
