Explanation:

1. The three basic properties of matter are mass, volume and shape. All matter is made of atoms. Volume is space - matter occupies, mass is the amount of material in an object. Liquids take container shape, gases have no definite shape or volume, liquids have definite volume but not shape, solids have definite shape and volume. Examples of solids can be a chair and ice, of liquids - water and milk, of gases - oxygen and helium. Ice melts when changing to liquid.
