Arrange the following substances in increasing order of forc es of attraction between the particles-water, sugar, oxygen. |
|
Answer» Solution :The FORCES of attraction between the particles in a solid are the strongest, in liquids are less strong whereas in gases are the WEAKEST. Now, out of water, sugar and oxygen : (i)oxygen is a gas, so it has the weakest forces of attraction between its particles. (II)water is a LIQUID, so it has stronger forces of attraction between its particles (than oxygen). (iii) sugar is a solid, so it has the strongest forces of attraction between its particles. Thus, the increasing order of forces of attraction between the particles of water, sugar and oxygen will be : oxygen `lt`water `lt` sugar |
