Question

Fragrance of perfume reaches from one place to another place due to the process of ______.

Answer 1

Gases-

• Gases do not have any definite shape or a definite volume.
• Gases cannot be confined to an open container.
• Oxygen(O₂) and Carbon dioxide(CO₂) are the two examples of gases.
• The particles of gases are far away from one another having a very weak force of attraction among the particles.
• Since, the particles are free to move, hence, the process of diffusion is the easiest among gases.
• Diffusion is the movement of individual molecules of a substance from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
• This is the reason the fragrance of perfume reaches from one place to another place in the air.

Hence, the fragrance of perfume reaches from one place to another place due to the process of diffusion.
