Ranch dressing is actually a fifth state of matter known as soft matter. Soft matter can have properties of both liquids and solids, so materials scientists say it is viscoelastic – a combination of ...

Scientists have found that water, under extreme pressure and cold temperatures, can split into two different liquid phases.

Scientists from UC San Diego have uncovered a key finding to one of water's unique properties: at high pressure and low ...

Solid, liquid and gas. The three states of matter provide a host of different investigations for children in KS2 to get their hands on. The lessons in this free download start with foundational ...

Water can exist in two liquid states under extreme conditions, reshaping our understanding of its molecular behavior.

After viewing a model of salt, students help develop models for the processes of salt dissolving, water evaporating to form a gas, and salt re-forming as a crystal. The focus is that matter, whether ...

Microsoft’s new “topological qubit” is not based on a solid, liquid or gas. It is another phase of matter that many experts ...

Microsoft has developed the world’s first quantum computing chip called Majorana 1. The company says quantum computers are ...

The transport of dense gases and liquids is becoming increasingly relevant in relation to carbon capture. Research published ...
