Matter is a general term for the substance of which all physical objects consist.[1][2] Typically, matter includes atoms and other particles which have mass. A common way of defining matter is anything that has mass and volume. Mass is the amount of matter in an object and volume is the amount of space occupied by an object.[3] However, different fields use the term in different and sometimes incompatible ways; there is no single agreed scientific meaning of the word "matter".For much of the history of the natural sciences people have contemplated the exact nature of matter. The idea that matter was built of discrete building blocks, the so-called particulate theory of matter, was first put forward by the Greek philosophers Leucippus (~490 BC) and Democritus (~470--380 BC).[4] Over time an increasingly fine structure for matter was discovered: objects are made from molecules, molecules consist of atoms, which in turn consist of interacting subatomic particles like protons and electrons.[5][6]Matter is commonly said to exist in four states (or phases): solid, liquid, gas and plasma. However, advances in experimental techniques have realized other phases, previously only theoretical constructs, such as Bose--Einstein condensates and fermionic condensates. A focus on an elementary-particle view of matter also leads to new phases of matter, such as the quark--gluon plasma.[7]In physics and chemistry, matter exhibits both wave-like and particle-like properties, the so-called wave--particle duality.[8][9][10]In the realm of cosmology, extensions of the term matterare invoked to include dark matter and dark energy, concepts introduced to explain some odd phenomena of the observable universe, such as the galactic rotation curve. These exotic forms of "matter" do not refer to matter as "building blocks", but rather to currently poorly understood forms of mass and energy.[11]
Matter and energy are interchangeable according to Einstein's famous equation E=mc^2, which states that matter can be converted into energy and vice versa. This interaction is fundamental in processes such as nuclear reactions and the functioning of stars. In everyday life, matter and energy constantly interact through various forms of energy transfer and transformation.
Plasma includes ions (charged particles), electrons, neutrons, photons, and various atomic and molecular species. It can also contain impurities, dust particles, electric and magnetic fields, and waves.
A human head typically weighs around 10-11 pounds, including the brain, skull, and other structures.
The General Properties of Matter:1. Mass: very common to all matter. Mass does not change unless divided or removed to a body of matter.2. Weight: it depends in the attraction of the pull of gravity thus, it changes from place to place.3. Impenetrability: there are no two things that can occupy the same space.4. Inertia: a matter that is at rest will remain at rest but can only be moved when external force is applied.5. Porosity: states that matter has pores.6. Form and shape: where we can distinguish what kind of matter is the thing observed.7. Volume: capacity or space occupied.8. Density: amount of mass per volumeThe general properties of matter result from its relationship with mass and space. Because of its mass, all matter has inertia (the mass being the measure of its inertia) and weight, if it is in a gravitational field. Because it occupies space, all matter has volume and impenetrability, since two objects cannot occupy the same space simultaneously.The special properties of matter, on the other hand, depend on internal structure and thus differ from one form of matter, i.e., one substance, to another. Such properties include ductility, elasticity,hardness, malleability, porosity(ability to permit another substance to flow through it), and tenacity (resistance to being pulled apart).Examples: density, boiling point, freezing point, hardness, crystalline structure etc.Physical properties can be observed or measured without changing the composition of matter. Physical properties are used to observe and describe matter. Physical properties include: appearance, texture, color, odor, melting point, boiling point, density, solubility, polarity, and many others.1. Mass2. weight (I believe you mean volume here... weigh is just gravities effect on mass and so really 1. and 2. are redundant...)One of the accepted definitions of matter are that it has mass and volume. Energy on the other hand does not have mass or volume.and there is actually 5 properties of matter. (really? what are they?)Professer, Michelle
Yes, plasma is the fourth state of matter, along with solid, liquid, and gas. It is a highly ionized gas composed of positively charged ions and free electrons. Plasma is found naturally in stars like the sun and in man-made devices such as neon signs and plasma TVs.
There are two types of helium isotopes: helium-3 and helium-4. Helium-4 is the most common and stable isotope, while helium-3 is a rare isotope that is used in various scientific and industrial applications.

8, not including Missouri, including it there would be 9
The 17 states of matter include solid, liquid, gas (common states), plasma (ionized gas), Bose-Einstein condensate (ultracold matter), fermionic condensate, quantum spin Hall state, Luttinger liquid, time crystal, supersolid, quantum spin liquid, photonic matter, dipolar condensate, dropleton, excitonium, Rydberg polarons, and strange matter.
you cant. team plasma is on black and white and the route 8 is on blue, red, yellow, leafgreen and firered.
PITTSBURGH to Key west I count 6 states including PA and FL
24 %
I think it takes about 8-12 hours or about a few days
It doesn't matter if you include the Sun or not, there are still 8 planets in the Solar System.MercuryVenusEarthMarsJupiterSaturnUranusNeptune
8 states including myanmar (not sure) My thinkings : Ka Chin, Ka Yar, Kayin, Chin , Mon, Burma, Rakhine, Shan
