Which of the following are also considerd to be the states of matter?
(i) Plasma (ii) Platelets (iii) BEC (iv) BHC
(a) (i) and (ii) (b) (ii) and (iii) (c) (i) and (iii) (d) (ii) and (iv)
(c) (i) and (iii) is the correct option.
Plasma is considered the fourth state of matter. Plasma is a cloud of protons, neutrons and electrons where all the electrons have come loose infact due to high energy , has been stripped off from their respective molecules and atoms, giving the plasma the ability to act as a whole rather than as a bunch of atoms. A Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) is a state of matter of a dilute gas of bosons cooled to temperatures very close to absolute zero.
