An ideal gas is defined as one in which all collisions between atoms or molecules are perfectly eleastic and in which there are no intermolecular attractive forces. One can visualize it as a collection of perfectly hard spheres which collide but which otherwise do not interact with each other.
Happy to help
Intermolecular forces in solids are strongest than in liquids and gases. Gases have the least strong intermolecular forces. Intermolecular forces are weak and are significant over short distances between molecules (determined by Coulomb’s law). The farther away from the molecules the weaker the intermolecular forces. Since molecules in solids are the closest, the intermolecular force between them as the strongest. Conversely, since gas molecules are farthest apart, the intermolecular forces between them are the weakest.
Answer:
They allow particles to stay close together.
The attractive forces (bonds) in a liquid are strong enough to keep the particles close together, but weak enough to let them move around each other. For example, Liquids are useful in car brake systems because they flow and cannot be compressed.
