Solution

For this question, first think about the states of both the things.

NaCl Solid

Water Liquid

Now, can you compare intermolecular forces of attraction of a solid and liquid. The intermolecular forces of attraction are very strong in solids but that is not the same case in liquids.

IMFs (solids) > IMFs (liquids) > IMFs (gases)

So, you got the answer right.

They are more than that of water.
