Solution
Explanation for the correct statement:
- Based on the molecular theory, solids have highest inter-molecular forces of attraction due to which there are negligible inter-atomic movements.
That's why, they show maximum least inter-molecular spaces as compared liquids & gases.
Therefore, the correct statement is- at room temperature, solids have minimum intermolecular spaces as compared to liquid and gases.
