What happens to matter when you squeeze it?
The harder you squeeze, the smaller the gas gets. In a gas, the atoms are far apart and moving around freely. A gas will expand to fill its container, and under pressure, can be squeezed into a smaller space. All gases are compressible. So are plasmas (another state of matter), but I could not figure an easy way to fill the syringe with plasma.
What happens when you squeeze air into a smaller space?
As you apply pressure, the air is squeezed into a smaller space. The harder you squeeze, the smaller the gas gets. In a gas, the atoms are far apart and moving around freely. A gas will expand to fill its container, and under pressure, can be squeezed into a smaller space.

What happens to the volume of a water bottle when squeezed?
The volume of the bottle will be V0 = πr2h where h is the height of the bottle, and the surface area will be A0 = 2πrh. As we squeeze the bottle we deform it into some kind of ellipse.

What happens when you squeeze a piece of sponge?
When you squeeze it, the solid part changes it shape, but stays the same size. The gas in the holes gets smaller, so the entire sponge takes up less space. Because the sponge is not sealed, some of the gas also escapes, but if you cut a piece of sponge and put it into the syringe, it would still compress.
