What is state of matter forms when a fluorescent light bulb is turned on?

when a fluorescent light bulb is turned on, the state in it is still gaseous state. no change of state occurs by turning it on. It functions like a CRO(search cathode ray oscilloscope). one end acts as a cathode and the other as an anode. electron beam is produced by the cathode and it moves toward the anode. on thier way to anode, electrons collide with the walls of the glass. on the inside of the glass, it is coated with such a material that when electron collides with that surface, it produces a small flash of light. when millions of electrons do that, we see a bulb turned on.

What are the energy transformations of a fluorescent light bulb?

When a fluorescent lamp is turned on, the electricity excites the mercury vapor inside the tube. UV light is produced. The UV light excites the phosphor coating. The phosphorus atoms relax by releasing a visible light. Since the light emitted by the phosphorus atoms is of a spread spectrum (the frequency is not fixed), the light appears whitish. To summarize, electricity is turned into light.
