What is a substance that is neither a liquid nor a solid?

Is plasma part of the solid liquid and gas group?

Plasma might be considered part of the solid, liquid and gas group. That's because, like a solid, a liquid or a gas, a plasma is another state of matter. It could be treated as a fluid, as gases and liquids are often considered. Plasma is another state of matter that might be said to be "beyond" gas. If we superheat a substance greatly and drive electrons out of their orbitals around parent atoms, we end up with a plasma. Plasma is generally considered the fourth state of matter by physicists. A material that is "cool" enough to exist as a solid can be heated and undergo a change of state to become a liquid. Heat that substance more and it becomes a gas. Heat it yet more and it becomes ionized particles we call a plasma. Use the link below to learm more about the fourth state of matter.
