It is typically made up of a combination of elements or compounds in a specific arrangement or structure. Substances can exist in various forms, such as solids, liquids, or gases, and they can exhibit different physical and chemical properties depending on their atomic or molecular structure. The study of substances in material science involves examining their properties, behaviors, interactions, and potential applications in various industrial and technological fields.
