Does mass and energy take up space?
Mass and energy always have locations in both time and space; the amount of space that they take up depends upon their density, but they do take up some. Since energy is often associated with matter (heat, kinetic energy etc.) it would be the matter that takes up the space. The energy would be in the same space as the matter. But energy can also exist independently of matter (such as a photon of light travelling in space) and in that case, the energy takes up space.
What is the term defined as anything that has mass and can take up space?
matter
Has mass takes up space?
Yes. Mass takes up space. Example you. You have mass and you utilize space.
Why are sunlight and gravity not considered matter?
Neither have mass or take up space
What has no mass and doesn't take up space?
A mathematical point in space has no dimensions therefore takes up no space. Certain particles have no rest mass but have the energy equivalent because of the velocity they possess. A singularity is a theoretical no volume point but has a huge mass.
Is it possible for something to take up space and not have a mass?
no taking up space is having mass.
Does matter have mass and take up space?
Yes, all matter has a mass and takes up space.
Does everything take up space?
Anything with mass takes up space.
Energy is anything that has mass and 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.
Is energy anything that has the mass and 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.

Have mass and takes up space is it an element or compound or both?
Both elements and compounds have mass and volume (take up space).
What is anything that take up space and has matter?
Mass
What does something have to have to be matter?
It has to take up space. (Have mass)
What has mass and can take up space?
(all) matter.
What is something that has mass and take up space?
One object that takes up space and has mass is matter.Anything that takes up space and has mass is called matter in physics. This is anything that has physical substance.
What Has mass take up space?
All matter in the universe.
