Solution

Inter molecular force
Inter molecular distance
Intermolecular forces are forces between molecules.
It is the distance between the molecules
2. It is the force that exists between each and every molecule 2. It is the distance between two adjacent molecules.
3. It is is more in solids less in liquids, very less in gasess. 3. The distance is more in gases little less in liquid and very less in solids.
4. More the force less the intermolecular distances. 4. More the distance less is the intermolecular force of attraction between the molecule.
