- - - - Air is matter
        
        Not all matter are visible to us. Air is matter we cannot see.
        
        For example,
        
        Carbon dioxide and oxygen are some gases in the air that we cannot see. But they are matter.
      - Has no definite shape as it takes the shape of the container it holds.
        
        No definite volume as it occupies the whole container that holds it.
        
        Can be compressed
    - - Has no definite shape and will fit in any container it is in.
        
        Has a definite volume
        
        cannot be compressed
    - - Has a definite shape
        
        Has a definite volume
        
        Cannot be compressed
  - - - However, how do we show that air has mass?
        
        There are two balloons P and Q on a beam balance
        
        After balloon Q is deflated, Balloon P with air now has more mass than balloon Q without air. So, balloon P will move downwards

        Medium gaps
        
        Garden soil
        
        Super small gaps
        
        Clayish soil
        
        Fine powder texture
        
        Less water can fill up the gaps
        
        Large gaps
        
        Sand
        
        marbles
    - - Is sand a liquid?
        
        No. Sand is not a liquid. Because liquids have no definite shape and each tiny grain of sand has a definite shape and is a solid

        CANNOT displace the air.
- - - - there is room for surrounding air to enter.
