Question

Which of the following describes the characteristics of a plasma? (3 points) a Particles are packed closely together, have low compressibility, and usually maintain their organized, set shape. b Particles are positively and negatively charged, have high compressibility, and spread out to fill a container. c Particles move around in a semi-organized way, take the shape of a container, and fill a container from the bottom up. d Particles move freely, have high compressibility, and spread out evenly to fill a container.

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is;

b. The particles are positively and negatively charged, have high compressibility, and spread out to fill a container

Explanation:

Plasma are gases that contain positively and negatively charged particles. Therefore, plasma flow drift in space such that plasma. like gases has no characteristic shape or volume but takes the shape and fills the entire volume of a container in which it is placed

Other characteristics of plasma are that plasma is a conductor of electricity and magnetic fields can therefore exist in plasma due to the fact that plasma are made of atoms in which part or all of the electrons have been removed leaving the ions to roam freely in a container.
