How do you adjust the spacing between words in CSS?

The spacing between words in CSS is specifically controlled using the word-spacing property. This property allows you to adjust the amount of space that appears between words in a text, providing fine-tuned control over text layout. By using word-spacing, you can either increase or decrease the space, depending on the design requirements or readability preferences.

The line-height property influences the vertical spacing between lines of text rather than directly affecting the space between individual words. Similarly, the letter-spacing property adjusts the space between characters within words, rather than between the words themselves. The text-spacing property does not exist in CSS, making it an invalid option. Thus, word-spacing is the appropriate choice for modifying the space between words.
