Question

arrange rhe follwing substances in increasing order of forces of attraction between the particals-water,sugar,oxygen.

Answer 1

Sugar is a solid; the forces of attraction between the particles of sugar are strong. Water is a liquid; the forces of attraction here are weaker than sugar. Oxygen is a gas; the forces of attraction are the weakest in gases.

Thus, the increasing order of forces of attraction between the particles of water, sugar and oxygen is

Oxygen < Water < Sugar
