Anything that has mass takes up space. Even air has mass.

A mass can have the following effects:

  • It takes a force to accelerate it.
    • Masses produce a gravitational field - they attract other masses.

    How can you prove air is matter?

    The classical definition says anything that occupies space is matter. To prove air occupies space we can do a small experiment. Take a balloon and blow air in it. The balloon expands and this proves that air occupies space. And thus we can prove air is matter.

    Did air inside ball is matter prove your answer?

    Yes, air inside a ball is matter because matter is anything that has mass and takes up space. Since air has mass and fills the space inside the ball, it meets the criteria to be considered matter.


    Why do you need to bring your sample to a constant mass?

    Mass is a property of matter it can not be changed in any experiment. For this reason the wording of your question does not make sense and therefore can not be answered.


    How did your experiment prove or disprove the hypothesis?

    That depends on the result of the experiment. The experiment is a way to test a hypothesis, and it's completely fine if the experiment disproves the hypothesis. Ideally, though, the experiment will support the hypothesis.


    If The flask and its contents had a mass of 120 grams before the experiment and a mass of 120 grams after the experiment Which conclusion can best be made from these measurements?

    That the Law of Conservation of Matter has been proven to be true once again. I could also conclude that the experiment occured within a closed sytem where no gas was lost. So many conclusions, so little time.

    What are the key differences between mass and weight that can be explored in a mass vs weight lab experiment?

    In a mass vs weight lab experiment, the key difference between mass and weight is that mass is the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force of gravity acting on that object. This can be explored by measuring the mass of an object using a balance scale and then calculating its weight by multiplying the mass by the acceleration due to gravity. The experiment can demonstrate how mass remains constant regardless of location, while weight can vary depending on the strength of gravity.
