What happens when a gas becomes ionized?

A. Deposition Occurs

B. Sublimation Occurs

C. It becomes a liquid

D. A plasma is formed

Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A plasma is defined as the state of matter in which gas exists in hot ionized formed that has similar number of positively charged ions and negatively charged electrons.

Whereas deposition is the change from gaseous to liquid or solid state in which particles come closer to each other.

Sublimation means direct conversion of solid into gaseous phase without undergoing liquid phase.

Thus, we can conclude that when a gas becomes ionized then a plasma is formed.

A. Deposition Occurs

Explanation:

When a gas becomes ionized, deposition occurs.
