How many states does matter exist in?

From Elementary school we keep learning about 3 states of matter, solids, liquids and gasses. Hence, most of us assume that these are the only ones.

Things have changed. There is certain proof that there are more than 3 states of mater, of which, most prominent is plasma. Plasma is not a common state of matter here on Earth, but may be the most common state of matter in the universe.

The main difference in the structures of each state is in the densities of the particles.

Many other states are known to exist only in extreme situations, such as Bose–Einstein condensates, neutron-degenerate matter and quark-gluon plasma, which occur in situations of extreme cold, extreme density and extremely high-energy color-charged matter respectively.

Some other states are believed to be possible but remain theoretical for now. You can click on the last link in the sources for the whole list of different states.

Our textbooks contains no explanation about the newly discovered states. If we take a 7^th grade Science textbook, we will only see Solids, Liquids and Gasses. It’s about time we bring upon a change by taking this matter seriously, pun intended.

Debunked!
