Only solids have a defined, constant shape.
The gas state of matter has no definite volume. Solids and liquids do have definite volume.

The state of matter is actually to states of matter. Solid and liquid are the states of matter that have a volume,(liquid) and shape(solid).
There is no such state of matter. Solid has a definite shape and volume, liquid has a definite volume but not a definite shape, gases have neither a definite shape nor a definite volume.
A liquid has a definite size but no definite shape. In contrast, a solid has definite size and shape, and a gas has no definite size or shape.
Solids are the only forms of matter having definite shape and volume.
A gas has no definite shape or volume.
There are two states of matter that has no definite volume or shape. They are a gas and plasma. Solid matter has a definite shape and volume.
Solids

There are four "states" of matter; plasma, gas, liquid, and solid. The "solid" state has a definite shape.
That would be called a solid. One of the other two states of matter are liquids, which has a definite volume with no definite shape. Lastly, there is the gases which have no definite shape or volume.
No. Only matter in its solid state has a definite shape and volume. Liquids have a definite volume but no definite shape, and gases have no definite shape or volume.
Liquids and solids are the states of matter that occupy a definite volume. Gases have neither a definite volume nor shape.
the difference between the three states of matter is that a solid has a definite shape and volume. a liquid does not have a definite shape but does have a definite volume. gas does not have either.
