question 50
what is the difference between plasma and gas?

• the color of their electrons
• the movement of their electrons
• plasma absorbs heat
• plasma absorbs light

Explanation:

Plasma is an ionized gas. In a gas, electrons are bound to atoms. In plasma, electrons are free - moving (ionized state). The key difference lies in the movement of electrons. Electrons in plasma are not bound in the same way as in a neutral gas. Plasma has charged particles (ions and free electrons) which can move more freely compared to the electrons in a gas (where electrons are mostly in bound states in atoms or molecules).

Answer:

The movement of their electrons
