When a perfume bottle is opened, some liquid changes to gas and the fragrance spreads around the room. Which sentence explains this?

a) Gases do not have a definite volume.
B)The particles of gases are closely packed.
C)The force of attraction between particles in gases is very high.
D)Gases are not matter.

Respuesta :

a. 

since they do not have a definite volume, this causes it to spread out in the air 

Answer:

Gases do not have definite volume.

Explanation:

Solids, liquids and gas are three forms of matter. Solids have fixed shape and volume. Liquids do not have fixed shape but have fixed volume. Gases neither have fixed shape nor volume. The particles of solid are tightly packed whereas the particles of gas are very loosely packed and the force of attraction between the particles of gas is very weak.

When the perfume bottle is opened, some liquid changes to gas and fragrance spreads around the room because the particles of gas are very loosely packed and the force of attraction between the particles of gas is very weak. The gas particles do not have fixed volume and easily spread.
