    What Is Matter

    Matter is anything that occupies space and has mass. It is made up of tiny particles called atoms, molecules, or ions. Atoms are the smallest particle of an element. Molecules are made of two or more bonded atoms. Ions are charged atoms or groups of atoms. There are three states of matter: solids have a fixed shape and tightly packed particles; liquids have closely packed but freely moving particles; gases have particles that are far apart and move randomly. The properties that distinguish the three states are the arrangement, attraction forces, motion, and energy of their particles.
