    Matter is anything that has mass

    Explanation:

    The word "matter" refers to anything that has mass, either organic or inorganic. Matter is made up of atoms, which consists of a nucleus (made up of protons, positively charged, and neutrons, electrically neutron) and electrons which revolve around the nucleus.

    The number of protons in the atom determine the element: there are more than 100 different elements in nature, with different properties depending on the number of electrons they have.

    Matter can be in three different states also:

    - solid: the atoms are tightly bond to each other, so they cannot move

    - liquids: atoms are not bond to each other, so they can slide past each other, but still they have some intermolecular forces that keep them close to each other

    - gas: atoms are free to move, as there are no forces that keep them close to each other
