The temperature at which a solid melts is the melting point of the solid.  The melting point is an indication of the intermolecular forces that hold the solid together.  Water melts at 0°C.  Table sugar (sucrose) melts at 285°C.  Gallium, Ga, melts at 30°C.  Which one of the following ranks the intermolecular forces in these solids from the strongest to the weakest?
A) Ga  >  water  >  sucrose
B) sucrose  >  Ga  >  water
C) water  >  sucrose  >  Ga
D) Ga  >  sucrose  >  water
