A graph of the number of States of Matter elements (from 1Hydrogen to 98 Californium) that are © R. L. McNish, July 2009 solids, liquids and gasses, by temperature, from 0°K to 6000°K. At 0°K all are solid (except 2Helium unless it is under very high pressure). At 3949°K none are solid. Dark At 5869°K all are gasses. At approximately 1660°K Matter ? (1387°C) the number of elements that are solids, liquids and gasses is about Antimatter equal.
