The correct order of phases of matter from strongest collective electrostatic forces to weakest is:

**solid, liquid, gas**

In solids, the particles are tightly packed and have strong electrostatic forces holding them together. In liquids, the particles are still close but can move past each other, indicating weaker forces. In gases, the particles are far apart and move freely, demonstrating the weakest electrostatic forces.
