Answer:
Intermolecular forces are weaker attractions that hold molecules or noble gas particles close together when they are in a liquid or solid form. Gas particles have broken away from the intermolecular forces that hold liquids and solids together. An alternative name for intermolecular forces is the van der Waals forces.

AnsweR:-
The intermolecular forces means the force of attraction between the particles of solid, liquid and gas. The intermolecular force is the other name of force of attraction. They vary in solid, liquid and gas.
______________________________________
- In solids the particles are tightly packed, therefore the force of attraction is higher than liquid and gas. That's why the Solids cannot get compressed, or can take any shape.
- In liquid the particals are a little losse therefore the force of attraction is higher than has but less than solid. That's why liquids can take any shape but there volume will be same
- In gas the particles move freely here and there, therefore the force of attraction is very much less in gas or you can say there is not so. That's why gases can come and go in any direction.
