    Matter is made of tiny particles called atoms and molecules that are in constant motion and attract one another. Matter has properties like volume, mass, density, color, size, weight, texture and shape. There are three common states of matter - solids which have a firm stable shape, liquids which flow freely but maintain a constant volume, and gases whose particles are far apart.

    Matter – anything that occupies space and has a mass

    What is Matter Made of?


    Matter is made of tiny particles
    Particles of Matter
    Are moving all the time
    Have spaces between them
    Attract each other

    Atoms is the smallest particle of an element


    Molecules is a particle consisting two or more atoms

    millimeter

    PROPERTIES OF MATTER
    Properties of Matter

     General Properties of Matter


     Volume is the space occupied by matter
     Mass is the measurement the content of the
    material

    Density is an amount of mass is a given matter


    Color is the appearance or quality of an object with respect to the
    reflection of light
    Size is a qualitative physical property of matter
    Weight is the measurement of how strongly gravitational force pulls on
    an object
    Texture is the feel or appearance of a surface
    Shape also considered a qualitative physical property of matter

    Types of Matter
    Solid firm and stable in shape
    Liquid a substance that flows freely but is of constant
    volume
    Gas the state of matter in which the particles are far apart
