can you help
plz
matter has mass it does take up space
microscopes can/are definitely needed to see some matter
so only liquid takes up space
I'd go for the first two
solids liquids and gases ALL take up space
after all, what are you sitting on ? a chair ? that takes up space
can't i go with It has mass and can be seen without a microscope because you said it doesn't take up space
'fraid not. some matter you HAVE to have a mic to see it. The space the matter occupies is small but it IS there
thx for helping
that's ok, I hope I have been of help ...

Hi A single proton or neutron or electron is as much matter as is a hydgrogen atom, a cup of coffee, the chair I guess you're sitting on, or Notre Dame cathedral. I can see Notre Dame. you can drink the coffee, BUT you need various sorts of MICROSCOPES to see atoms, protons etc. You also need microscopes to see the matter in germs, say. They ALL occupy space.
