I only know plasma is a form of matter too,But the rest of the information gets really difficult to comprehend.
In: Physics
You have to at least have a little understanding of particles to understand the basics of states of matter.
In a solid, it’s like all the particles were frozen into whatever configuration they were at the time.
In a liquid, all the particles tend to be tightly packed, giving way to gravity for them all to bunch together.
In a gas, all the particles are just whizzing about everywhere, bumping into things, free to leave if not contained.
In a plasma, you have gas state PLUS you have ionized the particles, that means some will have extra elections, some will have fewer, some will be unaffected, and the you also have a large amount of free elections floating in the mix. This causes the bulk of it to be reactive to electric fields.
