Why do certain smells spread through the air faster than others?

Well, it depends on the heat of the air and how much air there is. Smells spread though the air during the process of diffusion, which happens faster if the air is hotter(the particles of the air will move faster if hotter and therefore the substance will diffuse quicker). Also they will spread faster if there is more air, which means more particles being able to diffuse the substance. I hope that this helps. As you can see, I an an a* student in chemistry!

Cool air has more pressure because it's particles are condenced and warm air has less air pressure because the particles in it are more spread out.


What is the process where particles of perfume mix with air?

it is a gas body heat causes the molecules to separate converting liquid to vapor. the molecules then diffuse randomly. eventually some molecules encounter receptors in a person's nose, which trigger nerves that send electrochemical pulses to the brain.

Why does low pressure air rise and high pressure air sink?

High pressure sinks because there is a lot of particles together and low pressure is when particles are spread out


What is the difference between diffusion and breathing?

Diffusion is the spread of particles over a area, such as a gas moving outwards. Breathing is the process when your diaphragm contracts and air moves into your lungs. In ways, their like opposites
