Verified step by step guidance1
Step 1: Understand the definition of matter. Matter is anything that has mass and occupies space (has volume).
Step 2: Analyze each option to determine if it has mass and occupies space.
Step 3: Copper is a solid metal, so it has mass and volume, making it matter.
Step 4: Water is a liquid, which also has mass and volume, so it is matter.
Step 5: Air is a mixture of gases, which have mass and occupy space, so air is matter. Light, however, is a form of energy and does not have mass or occupy space, so it is NOT considered matter.
