Question
Chapter 12, Problem 3E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The differences among gases, liquids and solids from a molecular viewpoint are to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Intermolecular forces or cohesive forces keep the molecules or atoms combined together.
Intermolecular forces depend upon the types of molecules or atoms present in the substance and the distance of separation between them.
