Presumably ... but whether either one degrades at all is still up for grabs (last I heard the lower limit was 10 to the 39th years).

Where to find antimatter?
Anywhere with elementary particles having the mass and electric charge of ordinary matter. Which basically all antimatter is.
What is the role of gravitational force between matter and antimatter?
Sir Issac Newton proposed theory of gravity. He formulated the relation between the force of gravity and the mass and the distance between the masses. This theory failed to explain as to why there is attraction between the masses and not repulsion. With every attraction you have to have corresponding repulsion. That problem is resolved with the discovery of antimatter. So like attracts like. So matter attracts matter and antimatter attracts antimatter. This fallows that matter repel antimatter. So force of gravity between the two masses of matter or two masses of antimatter is directly proportional to the product of masses or anti-masses (Antimatter). The force of repulsion will be directly proportional to the product of mass and anti-mass (Antimatter). It fallows that the force of repulsion is inversely proportional to square of distance between the two.
Is all life composed of matter?
Yes unless its antimatter.
What are the advantages of using antimatter?
Currently antimatter is only used for scientific research as it is very expensive to obtain. In the future antimatter could be used for anything that requires energy such as producing electricity.
Is anti-matter a state of matter?
Not as such, no. Antimatter is just matter that is charged backwards from what we think of as "normal" matter. it can be a solid, liquid, gas or plasma just like normal matter. the only difference is that antimatter uses positrons and anti-protons instead of electrons and protons to create an atom.
How come the universe is made of matter and not antimatter?
That is not currently known. There is a slight assymetry between matter and antimatter, but so far, it seems that this assymetry is not enough to explain why there is only matter, and hardly any antimatter, in the Universe. Without such an assymetry, there wouldn't be either matter or antimatter in the Universe - just radiation. For more information about what is known, and what isn't, check the Wikipedia article on "Baryon asymmetry".
Why matter overcome antimatter?
That is one of the unsolved problems in cosmology. There seems to be a slight difference between matter and antimatter, that is, the symmetry between matter and antimatter is not perfect. But the details of baryogenesis are not known yet.
Anything that has volume or mass?
Matter, or antimatter.
Why the antimatter disappear in universe?
When antimatter comes into contact with matter, they annihilate each other.
If 1gram body of antimatter meets a 10gram body of matter which survives?
Initially the 9g of remaining matter would survive. Each particle of antimatter can only annihilate with one other particle of antimatter. At this point the 1g of antimatter would cause an explosion equivalent to that of 200000 pounds of TNT. Causing both groups of matter and antimatter to be obliterated.
Will antimatter start a black hole?
No, Antimatter while annihilate our matter, meaning that it will completely convert our matter to light and heat, however antimatter is highly theoretical, and the LHC probably will not create any.
What are two questions physicists have regarding antimatter?
1. Why is there more matter than antimatter in the Universe? Or: Why is there matter at all? (If there were the same amount of matter and antimatter, and it came into contact, it would quickly get destroyed. 2. If antimatter is so abundant, how come we've never come in contact with it or have been able to observe it?
What is the theory of creation of matter and antimatter from nothing?
You are giving the definition for the Big Bang Theory.
How could it B true that matter and antimatter at start of big bang With little amount of matter left in end winning B enough 2 make up all we see today?
In the early universe, matter and antimatter were created in equal amounts. As the universe cooled and expanded, there was a slight imbalance in favor of matter over antimatter. This allowed the matter to survive and form the structures we see today, while most of the antimatter annihilated with matter, resulting in the predominance of matter in the universe.
What is a thing that's not made up of matter?
antimatter and dark matter
What is anything that is not matter?
A thing that not matter is antimatter. It has been created by man.
Is it theoretically possible for there to be sentient beings composed of antimatter?
Absolutely not - Antimatter is a hypothetical form of matter that is as yet unsubstantiated. Answer It's possible but not probable. And antimatter is not hypothetical
