Plasma is the fourth state of matter. It is a highly excited group of atoms and molecules that can only be achieved at incredibly high temperatures. Because the atoms and molecules are so excited they will act like a gas and expand to fill any container they are put into.

Do solids spread to fill a container?

The answer depends on the solid. If you dumped a large solid metal cube into a truck, it would not "spread outward" to fill a container. If you dumped small BBs (think BB gun BBs) into the same truck, the BBs would spread out & fill the container (if you poured enough of the BBs into the container to fill it). Both are solids, but one solid will not 'spread out' like the others.


What doesn't have a definite size and takes the shape of their container?

A gas or a plasma takes on the entire size (volume) and shape of its container. A liquid takes the shape of its container but always has a definite size (volume) and may not completely fill its container.

Which state of matter spread out until they fill the container no matter how big the container is?

Gases are the state of matter that spread out to fill the container they are in, no matter how big the container is. This is because gas particles have a lot of kinetic energy that allows them to move freely and fill the available space.


What does matter in a gas state do to fill its container?

Spread out.


Does a gas always spread out to fill a container?

Yes


When particles spread out there named?

In the gas phase, the particles spread out to completely fill their container.


What Matter that changes size to fill its container is a?

Gas. (Or plasma, if one wants to get technical)


What state of matter will spread out to fill up whatever container it is in?

A gas is a state of matter that will spread out to fill up whatever container it is in. Its particles are loosely packed and move freely, taking on the shape of the container.


Does a gas fill any container which it is put in?

Yes, gas will uniformly fill any container it is put in to fill the available space. The gas molecules will spread out to evenly fill the space they are contained in.


A gas state of matter does what to fill out its container six words?

it will spread


What has molecules that can spread far apart to fill any shape or container?

Gases have molecules that can spread far apart to fill any shape or container. The particles in a gas are in constant random motion, allowing them to quickly fill the available space.
