Ionization occurs in gas molecules, either by heating the gas to a high enough temperature, or by applying a high enough voltage through the gas, so that the gas molecules lose electrons, causing the gas to be ionized, at which point it is a plasma.

What happens when adiabatic expansion of gas molecules occurs?
The temperature of the gas decrease.
Does a gas have to be hot for ionisation to take place?
Yes.
A blank bond occurs when two atoms share electrons to form compounds called molecules?
occurs in gas molecules; also known as diatomic elements.
How do you change one state of matter to another in plasma?
We can change gas into plasma by ionisation
What is it called Fewer molecules spread apart?
When a liquid or gas is heated, the molecules move faster, bump into each other, and spread apart. Because the molecules are spread apart, they take up more space. They are less dense. The opposite occurs when a liquid or gas is cooled.
What occurs when a substance moves from liquid to gas?
This change of phase is called vaporization and is a physical phenomenon; the chemical nature of the molecules was not changed.
The molecules in a gas at 100k?
The molecules in a gas at 100k
What is the process that turns gas into water?
This occurs through vaporization, either by evaporation or boiling.Water molecules in a liquid state are in dynamic equilibrium with the atmosphere: while some molecules are leaving the surface as a gas, others are leaving the gas phase to merge with the liquid. Evaporation, normally caused by heating, occurs when more energetic molecules are leaving the liquid than are returning to the liquid. At the boiling point, all of the molecules have sufficient energy to change phase to gas, and will do so if there are nucleation points. Otherwise, liquid may be superheatedpast the boiling point and spontaneously flash to steam when nucleation occurs. This can be observed by (carefully)stirring water that has been heated in a microwave to over 100°C.
Which process removes the waste product of metabolism from the body?
excretion
Why do electricity power lines buzz?
You're hearing the ionisation effect of the surrounding molecules in the magnetic field. You'll hear it worse when its raining.
Assumption of kinetic theory of gas?
The volume occupied by gas molecules is negligible when compared to volume occupied by the gas.The collisions between gas molecules-gas molecules and gas molecules-walls of the container are perfectly elastic.
Which of the nucleotides occurs in DNA molecules but not in RNA molecules?
Thymine
