Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The higher the melting point of a substance, then the higher the force of attraction. Which means there is direct relationship between the melting point and force of attraction.

The increasing order of interparticle force of attraction of the the three particles are

Z(398) Y(314) X (298)

I.e Particle " Z " have highest melting point, follows by particle "Y" follows by particle "X

NOTE: The melting point of a substance refers to the

temperature whereby there there is a change from solid state to liquid state, it is dependent on the pressure of the system
