Question

explain how three states of matter arise due to variation in the characteristics such as attractions between particles and inter particle distance​

Answer 1

Interparticle spaces and  Interparticle forces of attraction

Explanation:

The three states of matter arise because of two characteristics

(i) Interparticle spaces : Every particle has empty space or voids between each other called intermolecular or interparticle space. These are minimum in the solid state and maximum in the gaseous state. Solids have the largest inter-particles space.

(ii) Interparticle forces of attraction : Interparticle forces are the forces of attraction or repulsion which act between neighboring particles (atoms, molecules, or ions ). These forces are weak compared to the intramolecular forces, such as the covalent or ionic bonds between atoms in a molecule. These are maximum in the solid state and minimum in the gaseous state.
