    Matter is defined as the substance that has mass and occupies space.

    This means every matter will have mass and every matter will also have volume as it occupies space.

    Every matter is made up of number of atoms as these atoms are the small sub-units that combine together and constitute a matter.

    Hence, the statement atoms and compounds are made out of matter is not true.

    As density is mass present in per unit volume. Therefore, every matter will vary in density.

    Thus, we can conclude that characteristics that define matter are as follows.

    Matter has mass. Matter has volume (takes up space).
