State in which of the following examples the force of attraction between particles of matter is almost negligible.
- A. Piece of stone
- B. Water droplets
- C. A light gas
- D. All of the above
Step-by-step solution
In gases, particles are far apart and the intermolecular forces of attraction are very weak, often considered negligible. Among the options, a light gas (like hydrogen or helium) has almost negligible forces compared to solids (stone) or liquids (water droplets). Thus, option C is correct.
