Ancient View
• Panch Tatva (5 elements)
• Air, Earth, Fire, Sky, Water
• Everything made from these
• Continuous matter theory
Modern Science
• Particulate nature
• Incredibly small particles
• Spaces between particles
• Continuous motion
Key Properties
• Matter has mass
• Occupies space
• Made of particles
• Particles attract each other
Everything around us - air, water, food, even our bodies - is made of incredibly tiny particles that are constantly moving and have spaces between them!
