On the Volatility of Ethyl Acetate
Or ask: "Can ethyl acetate be volatile?"
To say: "Ethyl acetate is volatile. Under normal temperature and pressure, it is easy to change from liquid to gaseous and dissipate. Due to the non-strong intermolecular force, external energy is obtained. If heated, the thermal motion of the molecules intensifies, which is enough to break free from each other and leap from the liquid phase to the gas phase. Looking at the common experimental scene, when exposed to ethyl acetate in the air, the amount gradually decreases, which is evidence of volatilization. In industrial production, it is also necessary to prevent its volatilization-induced losses and safety hazards. It can be seen that ethyl acetate is indeed volatile."
