Q: In which of the following states of the matter molecules have maximum attraction force?
  • A. Fluid
  • B. Gas
  • C. Plasma
  • D. Solid
Correct Answer: Option D - The attraction force between the molecules of a solid is maximum. The solid state of matter is identified by virtue of the structural firmness of the material and its direct resistance to deformation (change in shape, volume, and appearance). Solids have high Young's modulus and deformability modulus. The force of attraction between the molecules of the liquid is less than the molecules of the solid and the attraction force is the lowest among the molecules of the gas.
