Correct!
The amount of space taken up by matter is called volume. For example, the volume of a balloon is greater than the volume of a marble.
Made of: tiny particles called atoms
States of matter:solid, liquid, gas
Solid: a substance that keeps its size and shape
Liquid: a substance that flows freely like water
Gas: a substance that has no fixed shape and tends to expand without limit
Cool fact: If you took the space out of all the matter in New York City, Manhattan would fit in a matchbox. Matter has lots of space in it.
