Hi,

A] Acetone hasis the slowest rate of evaporation followed by Isopropyl alcohol and highest rate of evaporation is for water

B] Acetone has lowest boiling point (56degrees), Isopropyl alcohol (83degress) and water (100 degrees)

C] For heat of evaporation, it is water is slowest, intermediate is Isopropyl alcohol  and highest rate is Acetone

D] Acetone has the weakest intermolecular forces, so it evaporated most quickly. Water had the strongest intermolecular forces and evaporated most slowly. The strength of the intermolecular forces in isopropyl alcohol are in between water and acetone, but probably closer to acetone because the water took much longer to evaporate.

Water evaporates most slowly because its molecules are attracted to one another by hydrogen bonding. Acetone does not participate in hydrogen bonding, so its intermolecular forces are comparatively weaker, and it evaporates most quickly. Isopropyl alcohol can also participate in hydrogen bonding, but not as successfully as water because it has a non-polar region, so it evaporates at an intermediate rate
