उत्तर

  • Sugar is a solid; the forces of attraction between the particles of sugar are strong. Water is a liquid; the forces of attraction here are weaker than sugar. Oxygen is a gas; the forces of attraction are the weakest in gases.
  • Thus, the increasing order of forces of attraction between the particles of water, sugar and oxygen is
  • Oxygen < Water < Sugar.
