In which state of matter do the molecules have the most energy?

The gas state has the most energy out of all three states because of how freely the molecules are moving, and able to move. In a solid, the molecules are forced together, with minimal space to move. In a liquid, the molecules are able to move a considerable space, but not as freely as gas. This answer is based on the "basic" three states of matter - solids, liquids and gases. There are other states of matter, and a plasma is a state of extreme energy. For instance, a star like our sun is a big ball of plasma. And plasma is a collection of atoms that have so much thermal energy that all their electrons have been "boiled off" due to extreme heating. Heat a solid, it liquifies (sublimatin excepted). Heat a liquid, it boils. Heat a gas sufficiently, and it will shed its electrons and become a superheated - and highly energetic - substance. It will become a plasma. Note that there are other states of matter, but they don't involve extremely high energies.


Can all matter be classified as solid liquid or gas?

No. While most matter on Earth is in one of those three states, not all of it is. A gas that ionized (electrons have broken free of atoms or molecules) enters a fourth state of matter called plasma. Plasma can be found in electrical arcs such as lightning and where substances are heated to extreme temperatures. The sun is plasma. At high temperatures and pressures some substances that are normally liquids or gasses can become supercritical fluids, a state that is intermediate between liquid and gas. At temperatures near absolute zero some materials can from a Bose-Einstein condensate, in which atoms stop acting as individual particles and start acting as a uniform wave. The cores of many dead stars form white dwarfs, which are are composed of electron-degenerate matter, a state thousands of times denser than anything found on Earth. The cores of massive stars may form neutron stars, which are composed of neutron-degenerate matter, which is millions of times denser than electron-degenerate matter.


Are plasma particles close together or apart?

Plasma can be at a very high or a very low pressure, and thus, density. Therefore, there is not a single fixed distance between the individual particles. Plasma is a harmonic inheritance to itself. Plasma is much more dynamic in closeness and is capable of interacting with itself in ways that are really quite amzing. The closeness of plasma electrons may be the key to manipulate matter. But really...WE do not need to know how to do that. Look at what WE have done so far. I think the key thing here is that Plasma is able to interact with most everything. Plasma has a very wide harmonic field...aura if you will....and can adapt itself to its environment quickly. Plasma is a great medium. And..of course the distance varies....depending on what electrons it was encountering. Plasma adapts to it surroundings. Varible is what I might say....interesting non the less


What elements form plasma?

Plasmas can be thought of consisting of elements that have "lost one or more electron", or become "ionized". Consequently, most plasmas contain a mixture of electrons, and positive ions such as protons. Since protons and electrons could recombine to form hydrogen gas, this mixture of particles is sometimes called a hydrogen plasma, because its components could make up hydrogen, even though there may be no hydrogen present. For more information, see: http://www.plasma-universe.com/


How many percent of matter is made up is plasma?

From Wikipedia: "Plasmas are by far the most common phase of ordinary matter in the universe, both by mass and by volume."That's because plasma makes up both stars, and the intergalactic medium.However, I wasn't able to find a specific percentage. I would assume that the best you can get is an estimate, which may not be very accurate.

What state of matter is bouncing?

It is none. State of matter is Solid, liquid, gas (and Plasma I think). You may be thinking of what types of energy


Can matter change state?

Yes. Matter may be in the states of solid, liquid, gas, plasma, and Bose-Einstein Condensate.


What state of matter is not a conventional state?

There are infact two! In general plasma is not considered a "conventional" state of matter. Another that may be considered "unconventional" is a state known as a Bose-Einstein condensate. For more information on the states of matter, please see the related question.


What is plasma and how does it happen?

Referred to as a 4th state of matter, plasma is a very hot condition that occurs in stars in which electrons are no longer orbiting individual nuclei, this allows collisions of nuclei which may lead to nuclear fusion.


The phase of matter that is made up of very high-energy particles is?

The kinetic energy of the molecules is greatest in gases.

What is the most common state of matter-?

Plasma is the most common state of matter. Plasma is a mixture of atoms and ions and electrons where electrons are mobile with respect to the ions and atoms. For example, electrons in conducting metals constitute a Plasma mixture; ionized gas is a plasma mixture. The key to Plasmas is the presence of mobile charges in a mixture. The mixture can be charge balanced, (plus and minus charge equal), but some charges are mobile, not bound. For example atoms in a crystal may be bound in the crystal structure but their electrons can move within the crystal structure, thus creating a an electron plasma.

What is plasma energy?

Plasma energy refers to the energy generated from plasma, which is the fourth state of matter after solid, liquid, and gas. Plasma is a highly charged and ionized gas that can conduct electricity and is found in phenomena such as lightning, stars, and fluorescent lights. Plasma energy has various applications including in fusion energy research, semiconductor manufacturing, and medical treatments.

Can the same matter be found in different states?

no because its matter and matter is in solid objects therefore it cannot.Sorry the above is incorrect. mercury for example is found as a solid, a liquid, and a vapour. It may also be in the plasma state in a near-vacuum when ionized.This is true for almost all elements and is partly true for many substances other than elements as well.But several elements have different allortopes - Carbon for example can be found as carbon black, Diamond, graphite, and graphene.Sulfur has the greatest number of allotropes of any element. [>30.]The equivalent property is called polymorphism in crystals.


What do states of matter refer to in Physics?

The states of matter in Physics refer to the forms that phases of matter take on. If you took science in school, you may remember that the four states of matter are solid, liquid, gas and plasma.
