Best Answer

The most common states of matter on Earth are solid, liquid and gas.

There is a fourth state, plasma, which requires high temperature and pressure, and is thus found on our planet mostly in science labs and nuclear reactors. But it's a much more popular state of matter in the universe at large, as it's what the bulk of stars (including our own sun) are composed of.

How cold is the 6th state of matter?

Better specify the states of matter by name - there is no standard numbering scheme among the 17 or so states of matter; there isn't even a universal agreement how many states of matter there are. In popular culture, this may refer to the Bose-Einstein condensate, which typically has a temperature of a few nanokelvin.

Yes. The answer is, it depends on where you are. In the United States, in most states, shotguns do not have to be registered, and for that matter, handguns, contrary to extremely popular, but patently incorrect belief, neither do handguns.

Is it true that there are three states of matter solid liquid and gas?

No, that is definitely NOT true. For instance, MOST of the "regular" (baryonic) matter in the Universe is in a FOURTH state - plasma. That's what you have inside of stars, where the temperature is so hot that the atoms are ionized.If you check the Wikipedia for "State of matter", you'll find at least 15 different states of matter. Solid, liquid, and gas are simply the "classical" or the most popular states of matter.

Did the big bang theory postulate that all of the matter in the universe cooled as it spread in all directions?

No. It states that matter cooled as all space in all parts of our Universe EXPANDED in all directions. Contrary to a popular misconception -- not helped by misleading or ignorant popular presentations -- Big Bang Cosmology does NOT state that matter exploded out from a central point into empty space. Rather, it states that SPACE ITSELF expanded at all points in our Universe, reducing the density and temperature of the matter within this expanding space.
