What is the importance of intermolecular forces with regards to state of matter?

Matter is the one which occupies the space. Especially atoms, molecues or ions are bound by the interacting forces between them. The strength of this force decides wether it will be in the phase of solid or liquid or gaseous. Greatest force is the cause for the solidification. Where as the same will be weakest in gas of gaseous formation.

How do forces between particles liquids compare to forces in the other states of matter?
the intermolecular forces/van der waals forces operate on an intermolecular scale giving you the 3 states of matter when these molecules are at different energy levels
Which matter has the minimum inter molecular force?
Intermolecular forces are weak in gases.
What 3 things describe matter?
The three rules of matter are - 1. The particles of matter have space between them known as intermolecular spaces 2. The particles of matter attract to each other which are known as the forces of intermolecular attraction . The forces that attract to same particles are known as cohesive forces and the forces which attract to different types of matter are called adhesive forces 3.The particles of matter are made up of small small particles
What is the chief factor that determines the physical state of a sample of matter?
It depends on the temperature of the particles.
What form of matter would exsit if cohensive forces did not exist?
Cohesive forces, or intermolecular attractions, hold liquids and solids together. Without intermolecular attractions, only gases could exist. (And plasmas too, but that's not the point of this question.)

What is the relationship between thermal energy and intermolecular forces in each state of matter?

What are he cHANGES THAT PLACE INSIDE THE MATTER DURING THE CHANGE OF STATE?
The thing that changes during a change of state is the intermolecular forces are disrupted. The temperature will not change because all of the energy is going into disrupting or organizing the intermolecular forces.

Cohesive forces, or intermolecular attractions, hold liquids and solids together. Without intermolecular attractions, only gases could exist. (And plasmas too, but that's not the point of this question.)
Which matter has the maximum intermolecular force?
Solid state matter has maximum intermolecular force.
How can matter be described?
Matter can be described as the state of any substance in the universe there are five states of matter confirmed till now, That is gas, liquid, solid, plasma, and b.e.c. or Bose Einstein condensate, The changes in matter can be described by the increase or decrease in the movement of particles of mater or in the increasing or the decreasing in the intermolecular forces of attraction or by intermolecular spaces between the particles.
What variables that responsible of the three phases of matter?
Three factors affected during a phase change would be temperature, pressure and intermolecular forces/internal energy.
How does the intermolecular forces between particles of matter in different states compare?
Intermolecular forces are very weak in gases. They are stronger in liquids, holding the molecules very close together, but still allowing motion around each other. They are strongest in solids, holding the molecules in a tight formation with only vibration about fixed positions.
What makes matter solid?
Its intermolecular bonds.
