The matter of the sun
a. forms a defined outer boundary.
b. is made of superheated gas.
c. has a negative electrical charge.
d. has a maximum temperature of 1 million°C.

b. is made of superheated gas.

Explanation:

Most atoms in the Sun exist as plasma, or a fourth state of matter made up of superheated gas with an electrical charge which is both positive as well as negative.  Our Sun consists almost entirely of the elements hydrogen and helium. ... The core is plasma, but moves similarly to a gas.  Its temperature is around 27 million degrees Celsius.  And because the Sun is not solid, it does not have a defined outer boundary.

Hope this helps!!

it cools slower in the earth meaning the crystals have more time to form than lava on the surface

a fossil fuel is a fuel formed by natural processes, such as anaerobic decomposition of buried dead organisms, containing energy originating in ancient photosynthesis.[1] the age of the organisms and their resulting fossil fuels is typically millions of years, and sometimes exceeds 650 million years.[2] fossil fuels contain high percentages of carbon and include petroleum, coal, and natural gas.[3] other commonly used derivatives include kerosene and propane. fossil fuels range from volatile materials with low carbon to hydrogen ratios like methane, to liquids like petroleum, to nonvolatile materials composed of almost pure carbon, like anthracite coal. methane can be found in hydrocarbon fields either alone, associated with oil, or in the form of methane clathrates.

the theory that fossil fuels formed from the fossilized remains of dead plants by exposure to heat and pressure in the earth's crust over millions of years was first introduced by andreas libavius "in his 1597 alchemia [alchymia]" and later by mikhail lomonosov "as early as 1757 and certainly by 1763".[4] the first use of the term "fossil fuel" was by the german chemist caspar neumann, in english translation in 1759.[5]

in 2017 the world's primary energy sources consisted of petroleum (34%), coal (28%), natural gas (23%), amounting to an 85% share for fossil fuels in primary energy consumption in the world.[6] non-fossil sources in 2006 included nuclear (8.5%), hydroelectric (6.3%), and others (geothermal, solar, tidal, wind, wood, waste) amounting to 0.9%.[7] world energy consumption was growing at about 2.3% per year. in 2015 about 18% of worldwide consumption was from renewable sources.[8]
