Question

states of matter model
space 1 solid space 2 liquid space 3 gas space 4
heat
where should plasma be placed in the states of matter model?
oa space 1 because as plasma is heated it changes into a solid.
ob space 2 because as a solid is heated it changes into plasma.
oc space 3 because as a liquid is heated it changes into plasma.
od space 4 because as a gas is heated it changes into plasma.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall state - change with heat

As heat is added, matter changes from solid to liquid to gas. Plasma is formed when a gas is further heated.

Step2: Analyze the model

The model shows an increase in heat from left - to - right. Plasma should be placed after gas as it is formed by heating a gas.

Answer:

D. Space 4 because as a gas is heated it changes into plasma.
