What is the most abundant state of matter in the universe?

1 answer

The most abundant state of matter in the universe is plasma. Plasma consists of ionized gases where electrons are not bound to atoms, making it the primary state of matter found in stars, including our sun. It accounts for about 99% of the visible universe's mass. Solid, liquid, and gaseous states of matter are much less prevalent compared to plasma, especially when considering the vast quantities of stars and interstellar matter in the cosmos.
