Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space. There are three common states of matter: solids have a definite shape and size, liquids take the shape of their container, and gases have no definite shape and fill their container. Physical changes alter the appearance of matter without changing its chemical composition, while chemical changes form new substances.

9. GAS

10. GasGas is matter that has no definite shape. Gases take the shape of whatever container they are in .Example: The air all around us is a gas.
