A few substances are arranged in the increasing order of ‘forces of attraction’ between their particles. Which one of the following represents a correct arrangement?
(a) Water, air, wind
(b) Air, sugar, oil
(c) Oxygen, water, sugar
(d) Salt, juice, air

The force of attraction between the particle is maximum in solids, followed by liquids and then gases. So the force of attraction between their particles of few substances in the increasing order is: oxygen<water<sugar. Hence, option (c) represents a correct arrangement.
