What is plasma?

• A state of matter where gas is energized until atomic particles are freed.

• A liquid state of matter that has a fixed volume but no fixed shape.

• A solid state of matter that maintains a fixed shape and volume.

• A gaseous state of matter that is completely ionized and conducts electricity.

What happens to the particles of a gas when it condenses?

• The particles gain energy and spread apart, becoming a gas.

• The particles lose energy and come closer together, becoming a liquid.

• The particles remain unchanged and stay as a gas.

• The particles increase in temperature and become a solid.
