Anna Holmes · Answer 1

The appropriate answer is D. volatility. Volatility refers to the susceptibility of liquids to vaporize. Perfume is liquid when applied but because of volatility, it has a tendency to vaporize and so it will convert to a gas and diffuse across the room. The process by which a liquid changes to a vapor is called evaporation.
