There are four phases of matter. From lowest enthalpy to highest, they are solid, liquid, gas and plasma. Going from gas to plasma is called ionization and the reverse is recombination.

Phase of matter for noble gases?

All noble gases are gases in their standard state


How do phases of matter change from one form to another with heat energy?

In general matter expands its temperature and volume with heat.This heat energy causes an increase of energy internal to the matter that expands its volume: solids melt to liquids, liquids expand to gases; and gases transform to plasma. At phase temperatures the matter changes form with no change in temperature;


Are gases elements?

Gases may be elements, compounds, or mixtures. A gas is a phase state of matter.


What is called sometimes the fourth phase of matter?

Plasma (ionized gases).


What phase of matter comes after gasses if you add energy?

If you add energy to gas, the next phase that you get is called plasma. In a plasma, the atoms have broken apart, and you have a mixture of sub-atomic particles that are not organized into atoms. Plasma is the highest energy phase; even if you keep adding energy, all you will get is hotter plasma.

What is the relationship between phase of matter and energy?

The phase of matter is determined by how the particles in a substance are arranged and how they move. Energy influences the phase of matter by either providing enough energy to break intermolecular forces and change the phase, or by removing energy and causing a phase change to occur.


Which phase of matter do particles have the most energy and the least energy?

Particles have the most energy in the gas phase, where they have high kinetic energy and are further apart. In contrast, particles have the least energy in the solid phase, where they have the least freedom of movement and are held together in a fixed structure.


What are two phase changes that occur when matter loses heat energy?

Two phase changes that occur when matter loses heat energy are: Solid to liquid: When a substance loses heat energy, it can transition from a solid phase to a liquid phase. This process is called melting. Liquid to gas: Another phase change that can occur when matter loses heat energy is the transition from a liquid phase to a gas phase. This process is known as vaporization or boiling.
