Answer:

Option 3) area space occupied by any sample of matter

Explanation:

We define volume of an object as:

  • It is defined as the space occupies by an object.
  • It is measured in cubic units.
  • It is the quantity of three-dimensional space enclosed by a closed surface.
  • It is different from mass occupied by the object.
  • Thus, it is defined as:

Option 3) area space occupied by any sample of matter

It is not a unit for measuring distance.

It cannot be defined as amount of matter in an object force per unit
