Answer:
The following are considered to be matter: chair, air, smell, cold-drink and smell of perfume.
Explanation:
Matter is mass and occupies a space. Matter can be solids, liquids or gases provided they occupy space and have mass. So, chair, air, almonds, smell of perfume and cold drink are all matter. This is because all of these occupy some space and have mass.
In solid state, chair and almonds are matter. Cold drink is matter in liquid state. In gaseous state, the smell of perfume and air matters. For smell, it must be noted that smell is not matter but the smell of some substance is a matter.
