MATTER AND ITS TYPES.
Matter.....
Matter is everything around you. Atoms and compounds are all made of very small parts of matter. Those atoms go on to build the things you see and touch every day. Matter is defined as anything that has mass and takes up space (it has volume).
Words such as big, little, long, or short are used to describe volumes.Matter is everything around you. Atoms and compounds are all made of very small parts of matter.

TYPES OF MATTER...
SOLID : A Solid is a state of matter with definite shape and volume. Particles are short packed, so they can vibrate but cant flow
Solid are rigid in nature.
LIQUID : A liquid is a nearly incompressible fluid that conforms to the shape of its container but retains a constant volume independent of pressure.
GAS : Gas is one of the four fundamental states of matter. A pure gas may be made up of individual atoms, elemental molecules made from one type of atom, or compound molecules made from a variety of atoms.
PLASMA : It consists of a gas of ions – atoms or molecules which have at least one orbital electron stripped and, thus, an electric charge. It is the most abundant form of ordinary matter in the universe, being mostly associated with stars, including the Sun.
