Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space.[1]
Matter can be converted into energy. This is what happens during a fission reaction. When a Uranium-235 atom is split apart into a Xenon-134 atom and a Strontium-100 atom, two extra neutrons will result. But the total mass of the end product is less than the mass of the original atom. The additional matter has been converted into a massive amount of energy.[2]
