  1. If its boiling point is below room temperature at standard pressure, then it boils.


  2. Liquids with a B.P. below room temperature will boil and Vaporise.

    (examples: Liquids like... Butane (0.5°C), Propane (- 42°C, Methane (- 162°C), Nitrogen(- 197°C)..etc.

    (Also, Solid CO2 at - 78°C (dry ice), will vaporise at room temperature without first changing to liquid. A process called 'Sublimation').

  3. They evaporate...

    this is an obvious happening. When a material has low boiling ponit(below than room temperature), it evaporates and turns to vapours. For ex. Benezene, Hydrogen Peroxide, etc.
