Question

In case of solids, the intermolecular forces are almost negligible.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Intermolecular force in solids

1. Solids do have a fixed shape and fixed volume.
2. Intermolecular force of attraction between the molecules of solids is high.
3. As the molecules of solid are fixed at their positions due to the high intermolecular force of attraction.
4. They do not possess translatory motion.
5. Due to the fixed position of molecules, solids are not compressible.

Hence, the given statement is false.
