we can say that air has mass and it occupies space by a small activity:
take an inflated balloon and if we press it we can see that it is difficult to press becuse it hs mass and occupies the space avialable
Matter is anything that has mass and occupies space.
Air is called air, it is the gas that we have here. And yes, it has mass and volume.
I did an experiment in class and we put 2 empty balloons on a grade 2 scale and ballenced it out then we took 1 ballon and filled it up. The scale tipped to the side with the filed up ballon.
This is the basic description of matter.
Since air occupies space and has mass it is called matter. Air is found in the Earth's atmosphere, takes up space, and has weight.
Yes
Matter.
"matter"
Matter
Air is a combination of many gases, all of which are matter. The definition of matter is anything that has mass and takes up space. The obvious example is blowing up a balloon. The air occupies the space within the balloon and when enough air is packed into the balloon the membrane of the balloon stretches. This is because no two particles are able occupy the same space at the same time so the particles in the air begin to take up space.
Anything that lives except air, light, sound.
Anything with mass and space-holding properties is considered to be matter. Atoms make up the basis of all matter. Air has mass and takes up space.
If you mean "Does air occupy space?" then yes it does when we compress air it takes space.. but when its not compressed we may not feel it but it still does take up space..
Theres likely a few quantum mechanic theories that are screaming at me but essentially yes, for it to have mass it must be made of matter for it to be made of matter it must take up some space even if its a tiny amount
Bosons, for example light particles (photons), don't take up space. Bosons and fermions are the two different classes of fundamental particles. Fermions take up space. Now particles with mass don't always take up space, for example the force carrier particles of the weak nuclear force, they are bosons and therefore take up no space but they are quite massive (for particles).
no taking up space is having mass.
Yes, all matter has a mass and takes up space.
Anything with mass takes up space.
No. Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space (has volume). Energy has no mass and does not take up space, therefore it is not matter.

Air takes up space because it consists of molecules that have mass and volume. When air molecules are compressed or confined, they exert pressure on their surroundings, demonstrating that they occupy a physical space. This property is known as the compressibility of gases.
Because it takes up space.

Yes, air is a mixture of gasses (roughly 80% nitrogen, 20% oxygen, with small amounts down to traces of carbon dioxide, water vapor, neon, argon, krypton, radon, carbon monoxide, methane, sulfur dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, various nitrogen oxides, etc.). Air has mass & weight. Air occupies a volume of space. Air moves and you feel it when it does (i.e. wind).
We know air is matter because when we blow up a balloon the air will take up space so the balloon gets bigger. We know that air has matter because it has mass. Anything that has mass and takes up space has matter.
Both elements and compounds have mass and volume (take up space).
