Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A volatile liquid readily evaporates, meaning it has a high vapor pressure and lower boiling point. Highly viscous liquids are thick and flow slowly, while highly flammable liquids are easily ignited and highly cohesive liquids have strong intermolecular forces between their particles. Highly hydrogen-bonded liquids have a strong attraction between molecules due to hydrogen bonding, but this does not necessarily make them volatile.
