What is Plasma in terms of a state of matter?
Simply plasma is like gases in the sense that they have no fixed shape or volume and are also less dense than solids or liquids, but plasma behaves in very different ways to gases. Plasma is a molecule where all electrons have been stripped which leaves the positively charged nuclei to roam freely.
(an ionized gas consisting of positive ions and free electrons in proportions resulting in more or less no overall electric charge, typically at low pressures (as in the upper atmosphere and in fluorescent lamps) or at very high temperatures (as in stars and nuclear fusion reactors). – Google Definition of what is Plasma
