Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space or volume.

  1. Mass: Common to all matter. Measured in g / kg
  2. Impenetrability: there are no two things that can occupy the same space. Two people can not occupy the same chair.
  3. Inertia: a matter that is at rest will remain at rest but can only be moved when external force is applied.
  4. Porosity: states that matter has pores.
  5. Volume: capacity or space occupied.
