So we want to know to what temperature the air heats up when the lightning strikes the ground. So the temperature of the air can get to 30000 degrees Celsius, the air gets ionised (turns into plasma) and conducts electricity. So the correct answer is D. 30000 C

3. When lightning passes through the atmosphere, it can heat the air to 30,000°C (54,000°F), nearly five times as hot as the surface of the sun. In which state of matter would you expect to find the air
