About Acetone
A volatile, water-miscible ketone that dries glassware almost instantly, which is why it is the rinse of choice before oven-drying. It is the mobile phase for many thin-layer chromatography separations and the active solvent in nail-polish remover; its extreme flammability demands spark-free handling.
