The basic building block of matter is the atom, the smallest unit of an element that can enter into combinations with atoms of the same or other elements. In many substances, atoms are combined into molecules. On earth, matter commonly exists in three states: solids, of fixed shape and volume; liquids, of variable shape but fixed volume; and gases, of variable shape and volume.

Suppose that you live near a large plant which manufactures cement. Smoke from the plant settles on your car and house, causing small pits in the paint. You would like to stop this air-pollution problem—but how?
