The answer is (2) higher vapor pressure and weaker intermolecular forces. Propanone has a lower boiling point, so it is more volatile than water. Propanone's vapor pressure is, therefore, higher than that of water at 50 degrees Celsius. Propanone is more volatile due to the fact that the intermolecular forces that hold its molecuels together are not as strong as those that hold together molecules of water. Since the IMFs are weaker, it takes less thermal energy to break individual molecules free of each other.

Answer:
Beryllium-8 (8Be, Be-8) is a radionuclide with 4 neutrons and 4 protons. It is an unbound resonance and nominally an isotope of beryllium. It decays into two alpha particles with a half-life on the order of 10−16 seconds; this has important ramifications in stellar nucleosynthesis as it creates a bottleneck in the creation of heavier chemical elements. The properties of 8Be have also led to speculation on the fine tuning of the Universe, and theoretical investigations on cosmological evolution had 8Be been stable.
