A definition of "matter" more fine-scale than the atoms and molecules definition is: matter is made up of what atoms and molecules are made of, meaning anything made of positively charged protons, neutral neutrons, and negatively charged electrons. There are three states of matter, they are: solid, liquid and gas. In extreme environments, other states may be present, such as plasma, Bose-Einstein condensates and neutron stars .
<span>Avogadro's number
represents the number of units in one mole of any substance. This has the value
of 6.022 x 10^23 units / mole. This number can be used to convert the number of
atoms or molecules into number of moles.
4 mol He ( </span>6.022 x 10^23 atoms / mole ) = 2.4088 x 10^34 atoms He
