When matter and anti matter is combined, they are both annihilated, so it is called annihilation. This is why physicists are so confused - we don't know why there is matter left in this universe, if matter and anti matter were both created in equal quantities in the big bang.
What else can I help you with?
What happens during a matter-antimatter reaction?
During a matter-antimatter reaction, particles of matter and antimatter collide and annihilate each other, releasing a large amount of energy in the form of gamma rays and other particles.
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".
What is the opposite to ordinary matter called?
PCH: Antimatter
What happens if you touch antimatter?
If you were to touch antimatter, it would result in a violent and explosive reaction, releasing a large amount of energy. This is because when antimatter comes into contact with regular matter, they annihilate each other, converting their mass into energy.
What happens if antimatter touches matter?
When antimatter touches matter, they annihilate each other, releasing a large amount of energy in the form of gamma rays. This process is called annihilation.
What happens when matter and antimatter collide?
When matter and antimatter collide, they annihilate each other, releasing a large amount of energy in the form of gamma rays and other particles. This process is called annihilation.
Is fire antimatter?
No it is not. Fire is a chemical reaction involving matter (molecules). You could have and anti-matter fire however. It would be hot just like regular fire but not as hot if you mixed the anti-matter and matter fuel. The mutual annihilation would release a lot of energy in accordance with E=MC².
When matter and antimatter combine they will form what?
when matter and antimatter combines, it will forms a flash and both will disappear. Disappear means its not like magic. Its is a reaction proved by research. Research is still going on in CERN. Matter is a thing which is everything present in the world in every state. (solid, liquid and gas). But antimatter is not at all existing in milky-way galaxy. But we can generate anitimatter.
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.
What does antimatter look like and how does it differ from regular matter?
Antimatter is a type of matter that is the opposite of regular matter, with particles that have opposite charges. When antimatter comes into contact with regular matter, they annihilate each other, releasing energy in the form of gamma rays. Antimatter does not have a specific appearance, as it is not visible to the naked eye.
Why the antimatter disappear in universe?
When antimatter comes into contact with matter, they annihilate each other.
Does antimatter possess negative mass?
No, antimatter does not possess negative mass. Antimatter has the same mass as regular matter, but opposite charge.
