Plasma is a state of matter ie:-

  • solid
  • liquid
  • gas/vapour
  • plasma

a plasma occurs when the atomic nuclei lose hold of their electrons so the atoms are ionised, it is the natural state of matter a high energy/temperature.

Plasmas are therefore found in the Sun, in lightening bolts, and in electrical devices (such as neon lights) and particle accelerators.

Where is plasma the fourth state of matter found?

plasma is found in stars. the only naturally occurring plasma on Earth is lightning. it is not to be confused with the plasma in your blood however, as these are not the same thing. plasma screen TVs use plasma the same way as fluorescent lights, but this is not naturally occurring plasma.


Where can matter be found in plasma state in blood or livers or river or lightning?

Matter can be found in the plasma state in lightning. Lightning is a form of plasma, which is a state of matter where atoms are stripped of their electrons and exist as ionized gas. Plasma is commonly found in stars, lightning, and certain experimental setups, rather than in blood, livers, or rivers.


Wht is the fourth state of matter?

The fourth state of matter is plasma, which is a highly ionized gas consisting of positively charged ions and free electrons. Plasma is commonly found in stars, lightning strikes, and electric sparks.


What kind of thermal reactors is plasma found in?

Plasma is typically found in nuclear fusion reactors, which are a type of thermal reactor that produces energy by fusing atomic nuclei together at extremely high temperatures. Plasma is the fourth state of matter, consisting of ionized gas with high energy particles.


Who invented the thermal plasma analyzer?

The thermal plasma analyzer was invented by Dr. George C. Tisone in the 1970s. It is a specialized instrument that is used to analyze the chemical composition of high-temperature plasmas.
