Question

29. The intermolecular force of attraction between the particles keeps them together as solids, liquids and gases.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

• The force of attraction between the particles of matter is known as the intermolecular force of attraction.
• So, in solid, there is a strong force of attraction, in liquids, force of attraction is more than that of gases and in gases, the force of attraction is minimum.
• As we know, if the intermolecular force of attraction is high, then, the intermolecular space between the particles will be less.
• Thus, if the intermolecular force of attraction is high, then, the particles will be close to each other.

Hence, the given statement is True.
