Gas is one of the four fundamental states of matter (the others being solid, liquid, and plasma).

A pure gas may be made up of individual atoms (e.g. a noble gas like neon), elemental molecules made from one type of atom (e.g. oxygen), or compound molecules made from a variety of atoms (e.g. carbon dioxide).

A gas mixture would contain a variety of pure gases much like the air.

What distinguishes a gas from liquids and solids is the vast separation of the individual gas particles.

This separation usually makes a colorless gas invisible to the human observer.

The interaction of gas particles in the presence of electric and gravitational fields are considered negligible as indicated by the constant velocity vectors in the image.

One type of commonly known gas is steam.

Industry is the production of goods or related services within an economy.

The major source of revenue of a group or company is the indicator of its relevant industry.

When a large group has multiple sources of revenue generation, it is considered to be working in different industries.

This came through many successive rapid advances in technology, such as the production of steel and coal.

Engineering is the application of mathematics and scientific, economic, social, and practical knowledge in order to invent, innovate, design, build, maintain, research, and improve structures, machines, tools, systems, components, materials, processes, solutions, and organizations.

Mining is extraction of valuable minerals or other geological materials from the earth usually from an orebody, lode, vein, seam, reef or placer deposits.
