Matter is anything that has mass and volume. It can be described using physical properties, and chemical properties. Physical properties can be determined without changing what it's made of, and chemical properties can only be determined by changing its composition. Matter can be divided into two main types: mixtures and pure substances.
physical property - any property used to characterize matter and energy and their interactions. 1  property - a basic or essential attribute shared by all members of a class; a study of the physical properties of atomic particles. absorption factor, absorptivity - (physics) the property of a body that determines the fraction of the incident radiation or sound flux absorbed or absorbable by the body. dissolubility, solubleness - the property of being dissoluble; he measure the dissolubility of sugar in water.
