Solution

The correct option is A True
  • Intermolecular forces of attraction: It is the force of attraction between the molecules of matter.
  • Intermolecular space: It is the space available between the molecules of matter.
  • Liquids are compressible unlike solids because they have comparatively more intermolecular spaces between the molecules and less intermolecular force of attraction between the molecules which allows them to be compressed.

Thus, the given statement is True. i.e., Liquids are compressible, unlike solids.
