Why is humus important to soil?
Humus is the end result of organic matter breaking down in the soil or in a compost pile. Humus is "fluffy", it soaks up water like a sponge and has a tremendous surface area packed into a small space. The surface area allows for more chemical reactions with the soil solution, increasing the soil's nutrient-exchange capacity and allowing it to support more complex plant communities on the surface. Humus increases the water-holding and nutrient-exchanging capacity of the soil, and its gradual breakdown releases a slow, steady supply of nutrients to plants.
Why is humus important?
That it's a source of nutrients and that it improves soil structure are two reasons why humus is important. Humus is dark brown, fresh smelling, nutrient rich organic matter. That it contains such important elements as nitrogen makes it a source of nutrients for plant roots, soil, and soil food web members. That it encourages the formation of air and water pore spaces makes it a facilitator of soil structure. The soil that has adequate air and water pore space has appropriate moisture levels and adequate drainage. Both of these contributions from the presence of humus in soil account for the improved well being of soil, soil food web critters, and plant parts above and below ground surface levels.
What gasses are to fill whatever space is available to them?
Gases like nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon dioxide will expand to fill any available space within a container due to their properties of high kinetic energy and lack of fixed volume or shape. The behavior of filling all available space evenly is known as gas diffusion.
What does a plant get from the empty space in the soil?
Plants do not directly extract nutrients or water from empty spaces in the soil. The empty spaces in soil, also known as pore spaces, allow for better air and water movement, which are essential for root growth and nutrient uptake by the plant. These spaces also provide living organisms, such as beneficial bacteria and fungi, with habitat for breaking down organic matter and making nutrients available to plants.
What is molecules take up whatever space is available?
Molecules will fill the space available to them due to their kinetic energy causing them to move around randomly. This is known as diffusion. In a closed container, molecules will spread out evenly to fill the entire volume.

New MacBook is missing 20 gb free space?
The system will use some of the disc space for it's own housekeeping routines (known as the system overhead) so it is not available for storage.
