The sun is made of hot plasma interwoven with magnetic fields. There are four fundamental states of matter: plasma, solid, liquid, and gas.

Which type of matter makes up the sun?

The Sun primarily consists of plasma, which is a state of matter different from solids, liquids, and gases. Plasma is a hot, electrically charged gas made up of ions and free electrons.


Does solar energy moves from the sun to objects on earth by radiation through liquids and solids?

No


Is the sun a liquid a solid or a gas?

The sun is a star. It consists of BOTH solids and gases. The Sun consists of hydrogen and helium (gases), but it also contains metals such as iron and magnesium (which are solids).The Sun is neither a solid liquid or gas it is the forth state of matter plasma


What are non examples of solid?

An non-example of a crystalline solid would be the complete opposite of it, an amorhous solid.


How are liquids characterized?

They are characterized into four groups although only three are commonly known. the three that are known are solid, liquids, and gas. these are the basics but the fourth is plasma, plasma means extreme cold or hot weathers. like the sun and Pluto hot and cold to the extreme tempratures.


What is heat transferred in?

Radiation in heat transfer is one of three known modes of heat transfer: conduction (as heat transfer in solids and less effective in liquids)), Convection (as in liquids and gases), and radiation (that not necessarily require a medium for the transfer). Heat of sun is transferred to us in the vacuum space by radiation heat transfer.


Can you use emission line spectra to determine the presence of metallic ions in our sun?

Yes, it is possible to use emission line spectra to determine the presence of metallic ions in the sun. Solids, liquids, and dense gases emit light of all wavelengths, without any gaps. We call this a continuous spectrum


Which state of matter exists only at high temperatures that are found in the sun and in lightning bolts?

Plasma is the state of matter that exists at high temperatures, like in the sun and lightning bolts. Plasma is a collection of positively charged ions and free electrons, which makes it electrically conductive and gives it unique properties distinct from solids, liquids, and gases.


Where on earth can the states of matter be found?

The states of matter can be found anywhere on Earth where materials exist. For example, solids are found in the form of rocks and minerals, liquids are found in oceans and rivers, and gases are found in the atmosphere. Additionally, plasma, the fourth state of matter, can be observed in phenomena like lightning and the sun.


Can solid and liquid be found on the sun?

No. The sun is made of hydrogen and helium plasma. Plasma is a state of matter defined as being super-heated ionized gas. Solids and liquids would instantly be vaporized on the sun due to the extreme heat.

What is the chemical make up of the sun?

gases as hydrogen and helium
