When mixing powdered drinks like Gatorade in a cup of water, the powder occupies the space in the water as it dissolves, creating a solution. Initially, the powder may settle at the bottom, but as it dissolves, it integrates into the water, effectively occupying the volume of the liquid. The solute (powder) and solvent (water) combine to form a homogeneous mixture, where the total volume may slightly increase due to the solute's presence.
