What layer is underground where all empty spaces are filled with a combination of air and water?

It is not a specific layer. Rocks have a certain degree of porosity (especially sedimentary rocks), which means spaces between the mineral grains from which they are made. When these spaces are interconnected the rock is said to be permeable. Rocks made out of ine grained clay particles have little porosity and are impermeable, conversely sandstones are usually highly porous and very permeable. The spaces in the rocks are usually filled with groundwater but may also be filled with oil or natural gas. Groundwater saturates rocks at a depth called the water table and the surface of this table follows the contours of the topography. When you dig a well you dig down into and past the water table. An aquifer comprises porous and permeable rocks below the water table from which large amounts of groundwater can be extracted.
