Bose-Einstien condensate
Bose-Einstien condensate- forms below a critical temperature
*None in existence on earth
*you will never live to see it
*its pretty darn cold
Plasma
Plasma- Ionized gas particles
*Made of electrically charged particles
*Found in lightening
*Gas has to be super heated to create plasma
(Lightening, sun)
lightening
super heats particles
Universe
Contains more plasma than solid
dome
Gases
Gas-airlike fluid that expands to fill any space possible
*Gas enters your lungs with each breath
*Not all gas is hazardous
*Gas expands to fill any size container available
(Oxygen, Carbon Monoxide, Helium)
Oxygen
essential to life
carbon monoxide
very hazardous in large quanities
balloons
filled with light helium
Liquids
Liquids- Material that flows
*Particles move around and slide past each other
*Liquid takes shape of container
*densly packed making it difficult to compress
(Water, Blood, mountain dew)
Solids
Solid-firm and stable, not moving
*The particles in a solid slightly move
*Considered dense because the particles are close
*not easily compresed
(Metal, rocks, wood)
Metal
very dense
rocks
wood
less dense than metal but still a solid
