Solution
The correct option is C Gases < Liquids < Solids
According to the molecular structure, the molecules of a solid are closely packed, of a liquid are loosely packed while molecules of a gas are very loosely packed. Therefore, a substance is highly dense in solid state, less dense in liquid state and even lesser in gaseous state.
