(d) petrol alcohol kerosene oil Water

Substance which is having low boiling point will evaporate faster
Boiling point of alcohol = 79 oC
Boiling point of petrol = 95 oC
Boiling point of water  = 100 oC
Boiling point of kerosene = 150-300 oC
​Thus, Alcohol will evaporate first, and kerosene will evaporate at the last
