There is a bit of a misconception here ...
Plasma in itself is not a substance any more than "liquid" or "solid" or "gas" in itself is a specific substance. Plasma is a state of matter. Stars are hot glowing balls of gas in which intense pressure and heat (which results from the intense pressure) cause nuclear fussion. This causes them to glow. Many gases in the star are in the plasma phase, but they are not "made of plasma" so to speak. Stars are made mostly of hydrogen and helium, though white dwarves also contain carbon and stars even further in their life cycle contain iron.
What else can I help you with?
Do stars contain plasma?
Yes, stars are made up of plasma, which is a state of matter consisting of charged particles (ions and electrons). The high temperatures and pressures in a star's core cause the atoms to ionize, forming a plasma state.
What phase of matter exists naturally only in stars?
Plasma is the phase of matter that exists naturally only in stars. Plasma is an ionized gas where electrons are separated from atoms, resulting in a high-energy state typical of stars.
What state of matter is uncommon on Earth but is found in stars?
Plasma is a state of matter that is uncommon on Earth but is found in stars. Plasma is a superheated state where atoms are stripped of their electrons, resulting in a mixture of positively charged ions and free electrons. In stars, the high temperatures and pressures create conditions where plasma is the dominant state of matter.
What is the form of matter common to stars and lightning?
plasma
Why is plasma the state of matter that is found in stars but is not common on earth?
Plasma is a very high energy state of matter that is usually only found at high temperatures. Stars are extremely hot, which easily allows the development of plasma. Earth is much cooler, which makes it difficult for plasma to form. Plasma can still be found in lightning bolts and fire.
Are stars made up of plasma?
Yes. Stars are made of plasma.
Are stars and moons considered plasma?
Stars are made of plasma, but all known moons are solid.
What do stars contain?
plasma
Matter found in stars?
Plasma.
What is the phase of matter for stars?
PLASMA
What are most stars made out of?
Plasma.
What is the process of how stars form?
plasma
Do stars contain plasma?
Yes, stars are made up of plasma, which is a state of matter consisting of charged particles (ions and electrons). The high temperatures and pressures in a star's core cause the atoms to ionize, forming a plasma state.
Where does plasma exist in the greatest quantity?
In stars.In stars.In stars.In stars.
What phase of matter exists naturally only in stars?
Plasma is the phase of matter that exists naturally only in stars. Plasma is an ionized gas where electrons are separated from atoms, resulting in a high-energy state typical of stars.
What is giant stars made out of?
Plasma And Gas Like Regular Stars
Why is plasma important to the universe?
because if plasma didn't exist we wouldn't! The sun and all stars are made of plasma :-)
