Why does our palm feel cold when we put some acetone or petrol or perfume on it?

Question 3. Why does our palm feel cold when we put some acetone or petrol or perfume on it?
Answer: 
When we put some acetone, petrol or perfume it starts evaporating by using the energy from palm and leaving it cool.

  1. We feel cool because acetone is a volatile substance and it evaporates rapidly by taking energy from our hands and evaporation causes cooling

  6. These all are wrong answer .The correct answer is -when we put some acetone or petrol or perfume on our palm, it evaporates. During evaporation ,particles of the liquid absorb energy from the surrounding or the surface of the palm to compensate for the loss of energy, making the surrounding cool.

  8. Evaporation causes cooling, that's the reason, substances that evaporation rate high, cause high cooling effect. Gasoline,perfume etc have low boiling point, evaporates quickly and hence suck heat energy as fast as possible, and hence cause cooling .

  9. There are some pore in earthen through which the liquid inside the pots evaporate. This evaporation makes the water in the pot cool. In this way, water catch in an earthen became cool during summer
