Answer:
- <u><em>No, I would not consider a metal to be a plasma because plasma is just another state of matter, and the copper wire is in solid state.</em></u>
Explanation:
Metal is not a state of matter. Metals can be solid or liquid (molten) depending on their melting point and the temperature at which they are.
Plasma is a state of matter, similar to gas, but it is reached only at very high temperatures like in the Sun. The particles in plasma state are not neutral atoms or molecules but negatively charged ions and electrons.
The copper wire is yet a solid, thus it cannot be considered a plasma.
Metals can be in plasma state only if the temperature is too high, like the temperatures in the stars. In fact, the metals in the Sun and other hotter stars are in plasma state.
Answer:
Chemical change.
Explanation:
When it is heated it decomposes into mercury and oxygen gas. The mercury oxide reactant becomes the silver color of mercury. Hence, a color change can be noticed throughout the reaction.
