My dad completely left me lost for words as he asked "What's in-between the particles in a gas."

I finally came up with... a vacuum. But after thinking about it. It can't be really.
That would mean certain pockets which you wouldn't be able to breathe in, sound would be lost etc.
I remember this from a while ago, someone said anti-matter, but what is anti-matter?
I'm really lost on this one, any thoughts?

You would think that.

Buut. When you see the diagrams in school they have spaces in between the particles. Confusing right?

Not really mindblowing, but I see how you could see it that way.

Between the particles of gas is simply space. Empty space that is, nothing.

Which diagrams? If you're speaking on an atomic level of course they are going to have spaces to represent the atomic structure. If you're talking molecular they will show space to represent the fact that it is indeed a gas. If they showed no spaces it would resemble a solid.
