States of Matter

What is matter? A matter is anything that occupies space and has mass. Where can you see matter? Can you give some examples of matter?

States of Matter

Matter can be grouped into 3 states. They are solid, liquid and gas. The state of matter refers to the group of matter with the same properties. In other words, you group the objects together according to their properties.

States of Matter
Solids 1. Solids stay in one place and can be held. 2. Solids keep their shape. 3. Solids always take up the same amount of space. 4. Solids can be cut or shaped. 5. Even though they can be poured, sugar, salt and flour are all solids. Each particle of salt, for example, keeps the same shape and volume.
