Exactly! They even say it in the song, plasma is an entirely different state of matter.

I love the three clones

i wish school had catchy songs so we would remember!

All in all, I'd say this is about semantics. While you are completely right in what you say, it's not entirely wrong to say that plasma is ionized gas.
-
Not gas? But plasma is ionized gas.

Boy, Talk about a split personality......

0:47 is the best sound I have ever heard. EVER.

Fair enough, I'm not a professional physicist either but just an amateur cosmologist and empiricist, it just bothers me when people call plasma a gas.
Most people would probably be surprised to discover that the largest professional association in the world in the form of the IEEE supports plasma cosmology over conventional cosmology(the Big Bang). The IEEE Nuclear and Plasma Sciences Society has been proving their plasma theories for decades in laboratories. Amazing stuff.

Hello masta420. I will say that I'm not good in physics or chemistry at all and know little. I just copied the first line of the Wikipedia page for plasma. I thought it was funny how it and the song play together. But by know means do i think i know all there is to know about plasma and gasses.

So... what you're telling me... is that the Sun isn't actually a mass of incandescent gas? The fourth grade me is heartbroken.
