because the molecules in liquid are bonded lossily than solid

The partcles of liquid have already more kinetc energy than the particles of solid. Also the intermolecular forces of the particles of liquid are weaker than the particles of solid. So when liquids are heated, the partcles get more kinetic energy than the partcles of solid and thus expand more rapidly. As you know, partcles of matter on heating expand as their high kinetic energy is able to overcome the molecular forces of attraction, thus increasing the space between the particles. This makes them expand.
The same is with gases. They will expand more rapidly than a liquid or a solid because of its particles which have large spaces between them.
