Overview

Everything around us is made up of matter. Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space. In this chapter, we learn that matter exists in three main forms: solids, liquids, and gases. Each form has its own special properties. For example, solids have a fixed shape, liquids can flow, and gases

Key Concepts

Matter is anything that has mass

Matter is anything that has mass and occupies space. Everything you can touch — like books, water, and air — is matter.

Solids have a fixed shape

Solids have a fixed shape and size. They do not flow and can be held easily. Examples: book, chair, spoon.

Liquids can flow and take

Liquids can flow and take the shape of their container. They cannot be held in hand without a container. Examples: water, milk, juice.

Gases do not have a fixed
