Which ranks these materials by the attraction between their atoms from the weakest to the strongest? oxygen gas, liquid water, liquid honey, solid iron ore liquid water, liquid honey, oxygen gas, solid iron ore solid iron ore, liquid honey, liquid water, oxygen gas oxygen gas, liquid honey, liquid water, solid iron ore

the best answer is d because the strong cohesion is caused by the ability of water molecules to undergo hydrogen bonding.

a is incorrect because when water solidifies, it becomes   ice, which expands and occupies a bigger volume for the same mass of water in its liquid state.

b is incorrect because water has high surface tension. besides bonding to itself it hydrogen bonds to other molecules at the top decreasing possibility for breaking of attractive forces.

c is incorrect because the water molecule has oxygen which is highly electronegative and so pulls the electron pair towards itself creating a dipole moment, making the molecule polar.

e is incorrect because water has strong adhesion, ability to stick to other molecules such as glass because of this molecules having stronger hydrogen bonding than water.

the answer would be a
