Question

Explain matter briefly.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Matter is a substance that has inertia and occupies physical space. According to modern physics, matter consists of various types of particles, each with mass and size.

The most familiar examples of material particles are the electron, the proton and the neutron. Combinations of these particles form atoms. There are more than 100 different kinds of atoms, each kind constituting a unique chemical element. A combination of atoms forms a molecule. Atoms and/or molecules can join together to form a compound.

Different kinds of matter can combine to form substances that may not resemble any of the original ingredients. For example, hydrogen (a gaseous element) and oxygen (another gaseous element) combine to form water (a liquid compound at room temperature). The process of such combination is called a chemical reaction. A chemical reaction involves interactions between the electrons of the atoms, but does not affect the nuclei of the atoms.

$\longrightarrow$Matter can be defined as any substance having mass and take space. Everything around us is matter.

$\longrightarrow$Matter can be also defined as any stuff that makes this universe "universe".

$\longrightarrow$Humans are exact example of matter because we are having mass and our body is occupying space. Matters are made up of atoms.

$\longrightarrow$There are mainly 8 states of Matter—

♦Solid

♦Liquid

♦Gas

♦Plasma

♦Excitonium

♦Degenerate Matter

♦Photonic Matter

♦Bose-Einstein Condensate
