Why does plasma make up about 99 percent of the universe?

Plasma makes up about 99% of the universe because it is the most abundant state of matter at extremely high temperatures, such as those found in stars. Stars, being the most common objects in the universe, consist mainly of plasma. Additionally, plasma is highly energetic and interacts strongly with electromagnetic forces, making it prevalent in space.


Plasma theory of the universe?

Briefly, the matter of the universe exists in four forms, solid, liquid,gas and plasma. Plasma a form of matter consisting of charged and uncharged matter in combination. plasma is macroscopically uncharged but microscopically charged. neon lights are an example of plasma matter in operation. it is likely that most of the matter in the universe is in plasma form. The implication is that electrical effects are the dominating effects in the universe. The operation of galaxies are likely the operation of giant motors and generators. Newton's view of the universe did not include electrical effects to a significant extent. The Plasma theory of the universe would put electrical effects as dominating, both microscopically and macroscopically. Plasma theory includes quantum effects which are essentially electrical , h = zQ2.


What percent of the sun is made of plasma?

99%


About 90 percent of the stars on the hertzsprung-Rusell diagram are?

About 90 percent of the stars on the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram are main sequence stars, which are in the stable phase of hydrogen fusion in their cores. These stars span a range of spectral types and luminosities, representing the majority of stars in the universe.


99 percent of the known matter in the universe?

is found in the form of hydrogen and helium. These elements were created during the Big Bang, and all other elements found in the universe were formed through processes like nuclear fusion in stars. Only a small fraction of the universe is made up of heavier elements like carbon, oxygen, and iron.
