(N/A) Solid state: Solids have a rigid structure,resulting in a definite shape,volume,and mass.
$(b)$ Gaseous state: In gases,particles are far apart with negligible intermolecular forces,leading to the minimum force of attraction.
$(c)$ Solid state: In solids,particles are closely packed with strong intermolecular forces,resulting in the maximum force of attraction.
