Answer to Question 1

No, the perfume has not disappeared. Perfume is an example of matter so it is made up of submicroscopic particles. We can smell perfume because some of the particles enter our nose. Over time the bottle becomes empty as all of the particles leave the perfume and move into the air and spread out into the room. The perfume can no longer be detected because the individual particles in the air are too small to see and are too spread out to smell.

Answer to Question 2

B
