Water has stronger force of attraction between its particles because methane is gas and its particles are further from itself.

Water has a stronger force of attraction between its particles than methane due to hydrogen bonding in water, which results in a higher boiling point. Methane, with its nonpolar structure, has weaker London dispersion forces. Therefore, it boils at a much lower temperature, illustrating the difference in intermolecular attraction strengths between the two substances.
