we can say that air has mass and it occupies space by a small activity:

take an inflated balloon and if we press it we can see that it is difficult to press becuse it hs mass and occupies the space avialable

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.


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.


Do mass take up space?

Yes, mass takes up space because mass is a measure of matter in an object, and matter occupies physical space. The more mass an object has, the more space it takes up.


How does air take up space?

Air takes up space because it consists of molecules that have mass and volume. When air molecules are compressed or confined, they exert pressure on their surroundings, demonstrating that they occupy a physical space. This property is known as the compressibility of gases.


Why doe air have mass?

Because it takes up space.


What is in everything that takes up space?

Bosons, for example light particles (photons), don't take up space. Bosons and fermions are the two different classes of fundamental particles. Fermions take up space. Now particles with mass don't always take up space, for example the force carrier particles of the weak nuclear force, they are bosons and therefore take up no space but they are quite massive (for particles).


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 is air is considered a matter?

Yes, air is a mixture of gasses (roughly 80% nitrogen, 20% oxygen, with small amounts down to traces of carbon dioxide, water vapor, neon, argon, krypton, radon, carbon monoxide, methane, sulfur dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, various nitrogen oxides, etc.). Air has mass & weight. Air occupies a volume of space. Air moves and you feel it when it does (i.e. wind).


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 has mass and can take up space?
