As the distance between the particles of matter increases, force of attraction between them also increases.
When particles gain kinetic energy, they start moving rapidly. Particles will break down the inter-particle force of attraction and move away from each other, which leads to a decrease in the force of attraction between the particles.
Concluding statement
When particles move away from each other, the force of attraction will decrease due to more space between them. Therefore, the given statement is false.
