Another type of physical change involves changing states of matter, and water is a great example of this.

另一种物理变化包括物质状态的改变，水就是其中一个很好的例子。

Plasma is the fourth state of matter after solids, liquids, and gases.

等离子体是继固体、液体和气体之后的第四种物质状态。

Phase transitions describe how one state of matter becomes another, thanks to changing conditions like temperature.

相变描述了受温度等条件变化的影响下，物质的一种状态是如何变成另一种状态的。

Chemistry frequently studies the three states of matter and how they are affected by variables.

化学经常研究物质的三种状态以及它们如何受变量影响。

Mr. Mason, astonished and distressed as you may suppose, revealed the real state of matters.

梅森先生，正如你所想的那样感到惊讶和痛苦，透露了事情的真实情况。

One misconception is that fire is a plasma, the fourth state of matter in which atoms are stripped of their electrons.

一种误解是，火是一种等离子体，是原子失去电子的第四种物质状态。

The robots' ability to switch between states of matter allows for a number of possible uses and advancements in different fields, such as the biomedical and circuit assembly industries.

该机器人能够在不同物态间切换，以此为不同领域，提供了许多潜在用途和推动力，诸如生物医学和电路组装行业等。

This state of matters became rapidly insupportable; and Denis, to put an end to it, remarked politely that the wind had gone down.

这种情况很快变得无法忍受。丹尼斯为了结束这一切，礼貌地说风已经停了。

So we take a gas, we put a huge amount of energy into it, and that turns it into the fourth state of matter, plasma.

所以我们拿一种气体，我们把大量的能量放进去，然后把它变成物质的第四种状态，等离子体。

The interior walls will have a gravitational field similar to Earth's and will be comprised of entirely new states of matter that were unknown to science in previous centuries.

其内壁将具有与地球相似的引力场，并由前几个世纪科学界未知的全新物质状态组成。

Ultracold atoms have already allowed scientists to study phenomena like Bose-Einstein condensation, in which atoms are cooled almost to absolute zero and become a rare new state of matter.

超冷原子已经让科学家们能够研究像玻色-爱因斯坦凝聚这样的现象，在这种现象中， 原子几乎被冷却到绝对零，并成为一种罕见的新物质状态。
