first lets clarify what is matter. in its general use, matter is everything that is not virtual. example of virtual things : mathematics, ideas, philosophy...

Even "light" is matter as it can be attracted by gravity.

So, this is what matter is, its made of something.

lets go with the other part of your question.

Matter can be found basically in 3 phases (lets put aside the 4th phase: plasma)

solid, liquid, gases.

in a solid, molecules can only vibrate.

in a liquid, molecules can vibrate and rotate on each other

in a gas, molecules can vibrate, rotate and slide

(see link)

this is how matter behave.

If you want to know what happen when you mix stuff like salt in water, then this has to do with solubility, size of particle and interstice. see link for in depth explanation on "solubility".

How does The oxygen in water behave?

Oxygen in water exists as dissolved oxygen molecules, which are crucial for aquatic organisms to survive. Oxygen can be absorbed into water through diffusion from the atmosphere or by photosynthesis from aquatic plants. The level of dissolved oxygen in water is influenced by factors like temperature, pressure, and the presence of organic matter.
