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
Gases do not have a fixed shape or size. They spread out to fill any space. Examples: air, steam, oxygen.
Matter can change from one form
Matter can change from one form to another by heating or cooling. For example, ice (solid) melts into water (liquid), and water heats up to become ste
