Characteristics of matter 

 "Matter" refers to any substance that takes up space and has mass.

1. Molecules are extremely small particles that make up matter.
2. The intermolecular spaces between these molecules are known as intermolecular spaces.
3. Because they have Kinetic Energy, these molecules tend to move.
4. Kinetic energy is a type of energy possessed by moving objects. It's the energy of mass in motion, in a nutshell.
5. Atoms make up molecules. The most fundamental unit of matter is the atom.
6. Subatomic particles, which carry various types of charges, are also found in atoms. 
  • Protons are subatomic particles with a positive charge.
  • Negative charge of electrons
  • Neutrons don't have any charge.
7. A substance's molecules are attracted to one another. The intermolecular gaps, or distance between the particles, determine the pull.
8. The lesser the pull between molecules becomes as the distance between particles increases.
