submerging a tissue wadded up into the bottom of a cup..inverting the cup and plunging straight down into a bowl of water..lifting it straight out and checking to see if the tissue is wet. It should be dry due to the air trapped in between the tissue and water

It expands, taking up more space, if there is no more space, pressure in the container increases.


What are examples of air taking up space?

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.


Why would it be incorrect to say This room is full of air?

Yes, it would. If you are standing in the room, you are taking up space that is not all air.

Could you measure that air takes up space?

Blowing up a balloon is essentially a measurement of air taking up space. The balloon does add slightly to the pressure (although the newer Mylar balloons often have less pressure). However, the space occupied by the balloon defines the space occupied by the air (or gas) inside. Helium or Hydrogen are lighter than air. They will still take up space in your balloon, but because they have a lower density than air, they cause the balloons to float. If you have a pressure chamber/vacuum chamber, you can cause the same amount of air to take up more space by lowering the outside pressure, or make it take up less space by increasing the pressure.


How can you prove air takes up space with adding a minipulated variable?

To prove that air takes up space without adding a manipulated variable, you can use a simple experiment where you place an inflated balloon inside a closed container. Close the container and observe that the balloon will prevent the container from being fully closed, demonstrating that the air inside the balloon (which is a part of the air in the container) is taking up space.
