Neon can be a plasma but is naturally found as a gas.
A plasma is another state of matter such as a solid, liquid or gas. It occurs when a gas is ionised (the splitting of electrons from their atoms). So for example in a neon sign a voltage is applied across the neon gas which gives the electrons enough energy to break from the atoms and the gas becomes a plasma.
What most people would consider a 'neon' sign may or may not actually have neon in it. The way a vapor lamp works is that outer electrons in gaseous atoms become excited, then fall back to a lower energy level. This releases light. The color of a true neon vapor lamp is reddish-orange. A yellow 'neon' sign has sodium vapor. A purple 'neon' sign uses hydrogen.
Not all "neon" lights contain the gas, neon. The term is somewhat generic and is used to refer to discharge lamps that might contain a variety of gasses to produce a variety of colors, especially in the once popular "neon" signs. Neon gas, itself, produces a crimson-red color.
yes but they can be changed into the plasma that reside in lightning but in lameist terms yes
Yes it is used in neon lights.
William Ramsay and Morris William Travers founded the element neon. :)
A combination of neon, argon, xenon, krypton, sodium, metal halide, and mercury. The common fluorescent lamp is a low pressure mercury arc lamp.
A red light, after an electric discharge in the lamp.
Neon is a natural element, but is rare on earth. It is mostly found on stars and is abundant in the universe.
A common gas found in a neon sign is neon, hence the name.
Nikola Tesla and Georges Claude are credited with inventing the neon lamp. Neon was discovered in 1898 and the neon lamp was invented in 1902.
Yes. A neon lamp contains neon.
Examples: red lamps with neon, helium-neon lasers, vacuum tubes, refrigerant and other minor applications.
i dont know it
i dont know it
he liked neon lights so thats why he invented neon
Around 1917, Daniel Moore developed the neon lamp while working at the General Electric Company.
This is a neon lamp.
Around 1917, Daniel Moore developed the neon lamp while working at the General Electric Company. In 1855, the geissler (Neon) tube was invented, named after Heinrich Geissler, a German glassblower and physicist.

The first neon lamp was invented by Georges Claude. On the 11th of December 2010, in Paris, he displayed the lamp to the public for the first time and since then they have been in use.
neon lamp, lightning, static electricity
