NO ELECTRICITY IS NOT MATTER! Electrons ARE A CHARGED SUB ATOMIC PARTICLE; MATTER IS ANY ATOMIC ELEMENT a building block of matter IS NOT matter it self. Electrons ARE NOT ELECTRICITY by themselves. Electricity is movement of free electrons along the lines of force of a magnetic field. THOSE ARE ALL TEXT BOOK DEFINITIONS! Matter turns to ENERGY all the dang time! Anytime you BURN ANYTHING; you convert matter to energy PHOTONS HEAT ATOMS BY RADIATION; Result; THE MOLECULES MADE OF THOSE ATOMS HEAT UP AND MOVE FASTER.
