Solution

The correct option is B $r_{s} < r_{l} < r_{g}$
The correct relation between the intermolecular distances $r_{s}, r_{l} a n d r_{g}$ in solids, liquids and gases respectively is $r_{s} < r_{l} < r_{g}$ .
Solids have strong intermolecular forces of attraction.
Hence, they are the closest.
The intermolecular forces of attraction are weakest in gases and therefore, they are farthest apart.
