Detailed explanation-1: -The amount (quantity) of matter contained in an object is known as its mass. More the amount of matter in an object, the greater its mass. It tells us about the heaviness of the object. For example, the body of a bear has a greater amount of matter than that of a mouse.
Detailed explanation-2: -Mass is simply the measure of the amount of matter in a body. Anything that has volume and mass is classified as matter. Mass cannot be seen but it can be measured or it is quantifiable. Mass is usually measured in unit of kilogram, etc.
Detailed explanation-3: -Matter in all states solid, liquid, and gas have mass.
Detailed explanation-4: -Everything that exists is made up of matter. Matter has two fundamental properties: volume and mass.
Detailed explanation-5: -Without mass, particles wouldn’t hold together and there would be no matter. One theory proposed by British physicist Peter Higgs and teams in Belgium and the United States in the 1960s is that a new particle must be creating a “sticky” field that acts as a drag on other particles.
