Solution

  1. Interparticle space is the space present between two particles in a state of matter.
  2. It is different for the different states of matter (solid, liquid, and gas).
  3. The intermolecular forces between gas molecules are lesser when compared to that of a liquid resulting in more intermolecular space.

So, gases have more intermolecular spaces than liquids.
