Answer 1

Answer:

Force of attraction is greatest in solids, little less in liquids and least in gases.

Sugar is a solid. Water is a liquid. Oxygen is a gas.

The sequence is Sugar, Water, Oxygen.

Answer 2

Answer: The increasing order of forces of attraction is Oxygen < Water < Sugar.

Explanation:

The forces of attraction are the strongest in solids, followed by liquids and the weakest in gases. Oxygen is a gas, water is a liquid and sugar is a crystalline solid. So the increasing order of forces of attraction is Oxygen < Water < Sugar.
