Question

Oday, you will observe drops of liquid water and compare them to drops of liquid isopropanol, noting whether either liquid evaporates. Given that the energy transferred in from the air will be the same for both liquids, make a prediction about whether both drops or only one drop will evaporate within five minutes. Explain your prediction below.

Answer 1

Answer:

Liquid isopropanol.

Explanation:

Liquid isopropanol will evaporate earlier than water because the boiling point of isopropanol is less than water. That liquid which have high boiling point require more heat energy for change into vapor state as compared to those liquids that has low boiling point. The isopropanol has boiling point i.e. 82.5 °C while on the other hand, water has boiling point i.e. 100 °C so we can say that isopropanol will evaporate first.
