Plasma is a state of matter?

Yes, there are four states of matter; plasma, gas, liquid and solid. Historically, there are 3 states of matter, solid, liquid, gas based on qualitative differences in bulk properties. More recently, distictions between states have been besed on differneces in molecular interrelationships, this now included plasma. Not only does this contain plasma, but it contains about 8 other states of matter and 4 propsed states of matter. I think that for precollege education (not AP), they are teaching the historic 3 states of matter. Here is the link for my answer


How many percent of matter is made up is plasma?

From Wikipedia: "Plasmas are by far the most common phase of ordinary matter in the universe, both by mass and by volume."That's because plasma makes up both stars, and the intergalactic medium.However, I wasn't able to find a specific percentage. I would assume that the best you can get is an estimate, which may not be very accurate.


What are the five things of matter in science names?

They are: plasma, solid, liquid, gas, and bose-einstein condensate state.


Which state of matter is made of positive and negative charged particles?

Interesting question. Electricity is the flow of electrons which can occur through solids, (copper,etc.), liquids, (water,etc.) or gases, (air, etc.) Electromagnetism is one of the four naturally occurring forces in the universe and occurs in all 3 basic states of matter.


What are the six phases of matter?

The 3 common phases of matter are solid, liquid, and gas. 1 less common phase of matter is plasma. 1 rare phase is Bose-Einstein condensate. 1 rare phase similar to the Bose-Einstein condensate is Fermionic condensate.

What are the most common 4 phases of matter in the universe?

The most common phases of matter in the universe are solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. These phases are determined by the temperature and pressure conditions of a given substance. Plasma is the most abundant phase in the universe, as it makes up stars, including our Sun.

What are the three common states of matter?

There are currently 5 known states of matter. The three that most people are familiar with are solids, liquids and gasses. The two that are less familiar are plasma and Bose-Einstein condensate (which has only ever been created in the laboratory).

The four most familiar states of matter are?

In physics, the four states of matter gas, liquid, solid, and plasma. Although people are more familiar with the three states of gas, liquid, and solid, plasma is more abundant in the universe. About 99 percent of matter in the universe is of this form. Plasma is an ionized gas that consists of electrically charged particles. A lightning strike is an example of plasma in nature.
