Best Answer

Fire is classified under one of the states of matter. It belongs to a more uncommon state of matter --- plasma. Plasma is ionized gas where electrons are removed from the atom through ionization. There are natural and man-made plasma. Natural plasma includes fire, lightning and the Sun. The whole universe is mostly made up of plasma. Man-made plasma include fluorescent light tubes.
