The correct answer is:

A) gas and plasma

Answer: option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In gases, the molecules are held by weak Vander waal forces. As a result, they have very weak intermolecular forces of attraction and the molecules move randomly from one place to another.

Whereas plasma is a hot ionized gas which contains almost similar number of positively charged ions and negatively charged electrons.

In plasma, molecules move even more rapidly because they are hot and thus, they have high kinetic energy.

Hence, we can conclude that gas and plasma are the states of matter which have particles that move independently of one another with very little attraction.
