When we open a bottle of perfume in a room, we can smell it even from considerable distance. This is because, when the perfume is opened, that gas of the perfume moves from its areas of high concentration to its areas of low concentration. This process is called diffusion. This is the scientific reason behind getting the smell of perfume from far away places.
because it is the property of gas , it expands fastly ..therefore we can smell it from a considerable distance.
gases are free to move they can move in any direction freely because they have larger inter molecular space between them.
when we open a bottle of perfume then then the particles of the perfume rise up and diffuse with the particles in the atmosphere therefore it spreads very quicly eventually reaching our noses
First of all I want to tell you that the force of attraction between the particles are near about nude. Thus they can move freely. the particles of perfume are move freely and by the diffusion process they move to thier lower concentration. thanks

Explain why, when a bottle of perfume is opened in a room, we can smell it even from a considerable distance.
When a bottle of perfume is opened in a room, the particles of perfume, start diffusing into the air surrounding the bottle. These particles of perfume keep moving towards a region of lower concentration by the virtue of their kinetic energy. Thus, when a bottle of perfume is opened, we can smell perfume even from a distance.
