Solution

The intermolecular force of attraction:
Gas molecules are far apart from each other due to the greater intermolecular space present between them.
As they are far apart from each other, they have a greater amount of freedom.
Due to this gases have the weakest intermolecular force of attraction as compared to solids and liquids.
Concluding statement: Intermolecular forces of attraction are the weakest in gases.
