Definition of termperature in thermodynamics

"Temperature is the measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance, which is related to how hot or cold that substance is. Historically, two equivalent concepts of temperature have developed, the thermodynamic description and a microscopic explanation based on statistical physics"

Your answer is c. explanation: plasma  is the fourth state of matter, derived from the gaseous state of matter.  plasma  can contain free  electrons  and/or  ions. while  plasma is never neutral, it can either be positively or negatively charged.  gases, however, are electrically neutral.
