Best Answer

I never heard of a fifth kind of matter, I only know the 3 basic ones and the 4th one.

-Solid

-Liquid

-Gas

-Plasma

Unless you meant to hit 4 instead of 5, You are trippin' imo :)

2nd Answer:

The 'missing' kind of matter is 'filament or filamental matter'. This is similar to plasma, but the molecules travel only in one direction, even if that is away from a center of gravity.

first of all, there are only 4 stages of matter, and they go like this:

  1. Solid
  2. Liquid- when a solid is put under intense heat, it creates a liquid
  3. Gas- when a liquid is put under intense heat, it creates a gas
  4. Plasma- when a gas is put under intense heat, it creates plasma

TRUE FACTS!!!!!

Plasma is around 10,00 degrees Celsius that's 4,000 degrees more than the outer layer of the sun!!!!

Time it takes for a diaper to decompose in a landfill: 500 years

Time it takes for a diaper to decompose in plasma: 5 seconds

To correct the previous answer, there are more than four stages of matter. There are up to eight stages of matter, although one is arguable.1. Solid2. Liquid3. Gaseous4. Plasma5. Bose-Einstein Condensate - the atoms that make up the matter become waves as opposed to particles6. Core of a Neutron Star - due to density it cannot be classified as any of the other states of matter7. *QCD Matter - protons and neutrons bind in an atomic nucleus. (related but independent of plasma)8. Transparent Aluminum - by removing a core electron they made aluminum invisible to UV radiation. This state of matter was observed in 2009*QCD Matter is theoretical since it has not yet been observed in but is believed to have existed in the beginning of our universe.

Fogifi : I disagree with the 2nd answer but I agree with the first (there are only four states of matter, solid, liquid, gas, and plasma)

Matter is anything that has weight and takes up space. Matter comes in PRIMARILY, ( notice that I said " primarily") 3 forms that we encounter everyday. They are a liquid, a solid or a gas. I know that some wiseguy is going to say that atoms are composed of matter as well. HEY, you're RIGHT! 5 examples; food, money, water, clothing, time cards and smog, just to name a few.

There are over 100 elements in nature, but there are 5 (technically six) phases of matter. There are the most common ones: solid, liquid, and gas. However, there are special variations of each of those main phases. First, there is plasma, a superheated gas with special properties. Then, there's a solid dissolved in a liquid; this is called the aqueous solution state/phase. Then, there's one more phase that is debated over whether or not it is actually a phase: the ammorphous solid. Commonly referred to as a "gel," this technical phase of matter has many properties that make up a solid but some crucial properties that make up a liquid.

So, to recap, there's:

solid, liquid, gas, ammorphous solid*, aqueous solution, plasma.
