Solution

The correct option is B False
Air is a mixture of gases.
Volume of any matter is the space occupied by it.
The definition of matter states that, matter is anything that has mass and occupies space.
So, gases also have a volume; that is, gases occupy space. However the volume is not fixed.
Hence, air being a mixture of gases will also occupy space.
Therefore, the given statement is false.
