Why do charged particles not penetrate matter?
Charged particles are going to have a strong electromagnetic interaction with any matter that they encounter, since matter is also contains lots of charged particles. In effect, matter will present a great deal of solidity or substance to charged particles.
What state of matter consits of electrically charged particles?
ions are electrically charged particles
What is changing by contact?
causing a neutral object to become charged by touching it with a charged object.
When you rub a ruler with a cloth why does it become charged?
it generates magnetic field and thus get charged
Where does gas particles become electrically charged?
By gas particles I suppose you mean gas molecules? These become charged when ionized, when an electron is stripped off.
What state of matter is made up of particles that have broken apart?
The answer to this question is Plasma. Plasma is the special state of matter in which atoms are broken down into charged particles. A good reference would be the sun. ~Kazuku-Nakamaru
How does matter become electrically changed?
The short answer is no. Although matter is affected by electrostatic forces of attraction, no current is flowing and thus it does not fit the definition of electricity (a term for the variety of phenomena resulting from the presence and flow of electric charge).
Does it matter what was charged on my credit card and when it was charged?
Yes.

What are some ways in which an object can become charged?
Some ways in which an object can become charged are friction, contact and induction.
How do particles become charged?
particles become charged when they either gain or lose electrons.
Which state does matter take when it is heated to very high temperatures and the atoms become electrically charged?
this is for every on on A plus the answer is plasma :) this was Ben McClanahan HHA

How do object charged by friction?
how objects become charged by friction
What are two examples of antimatter?
Normal matter consists of positively charged protons and negatively charged electrons. Anti-matter is composed of (among numerous other particles) negatively charged "anti-protons" and positively charged "positrons".
What do alpha particles leave charged in their path when they travel through matter?
Charged ions
What state of matter consits of electrically charged particles?
ions are electrically charged particles
