air is not present in space because there is no gravity in space.earth has gravitational force so it has the power to hold the atmosphere with it.therefore we can observe that as we go higher in earth's atmosphere the gravitational force goes on decreasing and oxygen also goes on decreasing ,this is the reason why the mountaineers carry oxygen cylinder along with them.due to the absence of gravitational force in space,space has no power to hold the molecules of any gases together ,so the molecules of the a gas in space get scattered in the vast space and that certain gas also looses its properties and another mini point is ,as planet earth has gravitational force it doesn't allow many it's maijor gases to enter the space.we can observe that rockets will be launched with great force at very high speed this is because the rocket must go anti-gravitationally i.e against gravitational force but as it crosses the earth's atmosphere and enters space its speed reduces. we all know that a manned spaceflight carries even the oxygen containers and other gas containers with it ,this is because of absence of air in space. so at last through the above description we can conclude that, in the above mentioned way and due to absence of gravitational force there is no air present in space.

If you pump all of the air out of a space what do you have?

If all of the air is pumped out of a space, you would have a vacuum. This means there is no air or matter present in that space, creating a low pressure environment.


Is the air present in the outer space?

Yes, but a very minimal amount. And this is far different than terrestrial "air." The gas in outer space is mainly hydrogen.


Are there many of air molecules inside a vacuum?

No, a vacuum by definition is a space with no air molecules present. Therefore, there are no air molecules inside a vacuum.


Why smoke occupies space?

Smoke is a collection of tiny particles and gases that take up space as they spread out in the air. When smoke is present in a room, it fills up the available space because the particles are interacting with the air molecules and occupying that volume.


What is space entirely empty of a matter or air?

A vacuum is a space that is entirely empty of matter or air. It has extremely low pressure, so there are no particles or atoms present. This is different from outer space, which still contains some particles, such as gas and dust.


Why the clouds remain present around the earth and never travelled over the space?

Clouds need air to exist.


Do you Need air in space?

you don't need air in space because there is no air in space at all! but in space they do have really small gravity!


What if you run out of air in space?

There is no air in outer space.


Why is there no pressure in outer space?

There is no pressure in outer space because it is essentially a vacuum, meaning there are very few, if any, particles present to exert pressure. Without air or any other medium to press against our bodies, we do not experience pressure in the same way we do in environments with air or water.
