Question
Give an experiment to explain that there are intermolecular spaces between water molecules.
Solution
Take a completely filled glass of water. Add a spoon full of sugar. Stir it well. The volume of water hence the level of water in glass remains the same where has gone the volume of sugar added? Actually the sugar molecules took the spaces (gaps) between the molecules of water and level of water in glass remains the same. This shows that there are intermolecular spaces between the water molecules.
