Solution

The correct option is B Evaporation
Acetone has boiling point of 560C and room temperature is closer to this temperature so it evaporates very quickly in the air while water has boiling point of 1000C so it evaporates slowly and this low boiling point of acetone is due to weak intermolecular attractions.
