Question

Write 'True' or 'False' for the following statement:

The intermolecular force of attraction between particles of a solid is maximum.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Matter:

• Every matter is made up of small tiny particles known as atoms.

Solid state:

• The particles of solid state are tightly and perfectly packed because the intermolecular force of attraction is greater in between two solid particles.
• However, this inter-molecular force of attraction varies from substance to substance.
• The inter-molecular forces of attraction is maximum in solids than liquids and minimum in gases.

Therefore, the given statement is true.
