Matter and Its Properties

Everything in the universe is made up of matter, which has mass and occupies space.
Examples of matter include air, food, stones, clouds, stars, plants, animals, and even a small drop of water or a particle of sand.

Classification of Matter

Early Indian philosophers classified matter into five basic elements: air, earth, fire, sky, and water.
Ancient Greek philosophers also classified matter similarly.
Modern scientists have developed two types of classification: based on physical properties and chemical nature.

Physical Properties of Matter

Matter can be classified based on its physical properties, which will be explored in this chapter.
Chemical aspects of matter will be discussed in subsequent chapters.

Nature of Matter

Two schools of thought exist regarding the nature of matter: continuous (like a block of wood) or particulate (like sand).
An activity can be performed to determine whether matter is continuous or particulate.

Data Science

Data science involves multiple disciplines, including mathematics, statistics, computer science, information systems, and business management.
It teaches how to collect, analyze, interpret, and communicate data using various tools and techniques.
Topics in data science include big data, data analysis, descriptive statistics, probability theory, database design, and machine learning algorithms.

Online Tutorials

Online tutorials offer flexibility and convenience, allowing students to study at their own pace.
They often feature interactive lessons with videos, quizzes, assignments, discussions, and other learning materials.
