TYPES OF MATTER  1. Solid  2. Liquid  3. Gas  4. Plasma  5. Bose-Einstein Condensate      Now  scientist are talking of five states of matter: Solid, Liquid, Gas another two types Plasma and Bose-Einstein Condensate. PLASMA:- The state consists of super energetic and super excited particles. These particles are in the form of ionised gases. The fluorescent tube and neon sign bulbs consists of plasma. Inside a neon sign bulb there is neon gas and inside a fluorescent tube there is helium gas or some other gas. The gas gets ionised, that is, gets charged when electrical energy flows through it. This charging up creates a plasma glowing inside the tube or bulb. The plasma glows with a special colour depending on the nature of gas. The Sun and the stars glow because of the presence of plasma in them. The plasma is created in stars because of very high temperature. BOSE-EINSTEIN CONDENSATE:- In 1920, Indian physicist Satyendra Nath Bose  had done some calculations for a fifth state of matte
