Answer: B

Explanation: Evaporation rate is influenced by the liquid's boiling temperature. A lower boilng point means that converting the liquid to a gas takes less energy because higher temperatures mean higher energy content. Assuming that this relationship holds at room temperature and that all other factors are equal, you should expect that Liquid B will evaporate faster.

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

Because at temerature at 25 and 50 is

to low for a compound to evaporate as gas because the bioling point is 100.
