IV. WHAT MAKES UP MATTER?
Matter is made up of tiny particles. These particles are called atoms. Atoms are the smallest unit of matter. You can’t see atoms because they are so tiny. Two or more atoms can join together to make larger particles of matter. These larger particles can join other particles to make up the matter you can see. Atoms join together to make up different kinds of matter. Oxygen is made up of just one kind of atom. Water has two atoms that join together to make water. ANSWER THE QUESTIONS: 1. What is an atom?
2. Why can’t you see an atom?
3. How many kinds of atoms does water have?
4. How many kinds of atoms does oxygen have?
