As most people know, there are three states of matter: solid, liquid, and gas. The molecules of a solid object contain the least amount of energy compared to liquid and gas, because energy is required for the molecules that make up a certain object to move around (as they do in liquid and more so in gas). An addition to these three states of matter that are most common on earth is plasma, which is similar to gas but contains a lot more energy. Plasma is a partially ionized gas, in which a certain proportion of electrons are free rather than being bound to an atom or molecule. To answer this question simply, a gas is to a plasma as air is to the sun.
