Question

which is the state of matter shown in this figure? a) liquid b) gas c) solid d) plasma

Explanation:

In the figure, the particles are widely - spaced and moving freely. In gases, particles are far apart and move randomly at high speeds. Liquids have particles closer together than gases and can flow but not move as freely as gas particles. Solids have particles in a fixed, ordered arrangement. Plasma is a highly ionized state with charged particles and is different from the state shown.

Answer:

B. gas
