Yes smoke does have mass and it does occupy space.

There's no "why", because neither of those "doesn't"s is true. The particles of
smoke do occupy space, although they're spread out thinly when you see them.
And smoke definitely does have mass. And weight too.
By definition, smoke is not considered mass because it does not have a physical body and occupy space. Smoke is considered matter since it is made up of particles.
Yes, smoke is made of soot, which is mostly fine particulates of carbon mixed with air. Since soot has mass (is made of matter), smoke has mass.
Of course, smoke is composed of CO2, H2O, other gasses, and tiny particles. As a matter smoke has a mass and occupy space.
Smoke - consists of microscopic particles, and gasses. Therefore it has mass, and occupies space.
because it has a mass, and it is a state of matter.
It doesn't have mass or take up space. <><><><><> Light is energy, and energy is matter, according to Einstein. Besides, it has been proved that light is affected by Gravity and, in order to do that, it has to have mass. Look again at Einstein and others, such as Lorentz... The photon has no mass, or does it? True, it seems to have no mass, but that is at rest state. Multiply that by infinity to account for mass increase and time dilation due to traveling at the speed of light, and what do you get? Something that looks like a particle, having mass, traveling at the speed of light.
We have mass and occupy space, so we are here.
All matter 1) has mass and 2) occupies space (has volume).
If you mean "Does air occupy space?" then yes it does when we compress air it takes space.. but when its not compressed we may not feel it but it still does take up space..
