What element is most of the matter in the universe?

The most abundant element in the universe is hydrogen, which makes up about three-quarters of all matter! Helium makes up most of the remaining 25%


Most of the matter in the universe exists as?

Matter is made up of elements and compounds, which are made up of atoms. But in an atom, most of the volume that it takes up is empty space. So all matter is mostly made up of empty space.


What state of matter makes up 99 percent of all matter?

The most common state of matter in the universe is plasma. Plasma is a state of matter which consists of ionized gas. Although this phase of matter is rare in on earth, it makes up stars and is widespread throughout the universe.


Why is plasma the most common state of matter?

There were three basic states of matter: solid, liquid and gas. As we understood more about the nature of the world and how things in it worked, we saw that the three states of matter were basically a function of temperature. But at elevated temperatures, the term "gas" doesn't really apply. We had to think of something else, and plasma was the name we applied as a logical extension of the other three states of matter. We needed a fourth state of matter to describe things on the sun or in an electric arc. Atoms stripped of some or all of their electrons and existing without them owing to extrordinarily high temperatures (energies) are in a state called a plasma. Wikipedia has additional information on this state of matter, and a link is provided.

What does most matter in the universe exist in?

Most matter in the universe exists in the form of dark matter and dark energy, which are currently not fully understood by scientists. These two components make up the majority of the universe's mass-energy content, with ordinary matter (protons, neutrons, electrons) making up only a small percentage.


What type of matter is In the universe the most?

Plasma is the most common type of matter in the universe


Where is matter located?

Matter exists throughout the universe in various forms, such as solids, liquids, gases, and plasma. It can be found in galaxies, stars, planets, living organisms, and even in the air we breathe. In everyday life, matter is present in objects around us, including furniture, food, and buildings.


Is there infinite matter in the universe?

No. The universe CONTAINS matter. While space is boundless, it will always be greater than ANY and ALL matter.There is no proof that matter exists throughout the boundlesness of space, we only know we can see it in every direction we look. Even the most distant reaches of space as viewed by our most powerful telescopes are but an ifinitely small drop in the bucket of BOUNDLESNESS. Another way to see it is If we were an all powerful observer of ALL that exists, we could see that there is in fact an "ALL THAT EXISTS" Logic dictates that when speaking of "SOMETHING" (matter) each something can be given a number (EVEN if is is a number given to the subatomic particles that comprise each individual atom) There WOULD come a time when ALL were numbered! Since matter cannot be created (turning NOTHING into SOMETHING) nor destroyed (turning SOMETHING into NOTHING) therefore matter is eternal is the default position. That matter can be changed into energy and energy into matter does not refute the position that matter is finite. It simply denotes that every step further into the subatomic level or factor in that energy can change to matter and matter can be converted to energy is one more step that leads to the conclusion that ALL that exists is a finite.


What is the state of most of the matter is the universe?

The most common type of energy/mass in the Universe is in the form of dark energy, followed by dark matter. Only about 4% of the Universe is in the form of "normal" (baryonic) matter. If it is specifically to this matter you refer: the most common state of matter is plasma, found in stars.


Why is TV plasma the most common phase of matter in the universe?

Television plasma is not the most common phase of matter in the universe. It is merely a superior means of showing high definition television.
