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.

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.
