The statement is true. Matter occupies space and has mass.
Explanation:
- Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space. Mass gives an object the property of weight and inertia.
- There are four states of matter, solid, liquid, gas, and plasma.
- If something is in a solid state of matter, it has a definite shape and volume. The volume of an object is the amount of space it occupies.
- A block of wood placed on a table retains its shape and volume, therefore, it is an example of a solid.
- If a liquid is poured on that same table, there are very different results. The liquid will flow out over the surface because it does not retain its shape. A liquid takes that shape of its container. If something is in a liquid state of matter, it will have a definite volume, but an indefinite shape.
- Air fills a balloon. If a hole is placed in a balloon, the air will rush out. If an object is in a gaseous state of matter, it will not have a definite shape or a definite volume.
- Plasma has all of the properties of a gas except that it is made up of electrons instead of atoms or molecules. Plasma exists on stars, in necular explosions, and neon signs.
