No, a liquid does not necessarily fill the container it is in; however liquids always take the shape of their container.

Do small amounts of liquids fill a large container?
yes
What Spreads Out To Fill Any Type Of Container?
Gas spreads out to fill any type of container
Do liquids always fill their container?
Gravity. The gravitational pull of the Earth will exert a force on anything with a mass and pull it towards the centre of the Earth. As we're essentially standing on the surface of a sphere, the centre of the Earth is pretty much straight down and gravity will pull liquids to the bottom of any container.
Solids and liquids both have fixed?
Solids and liquids both have fixed volumes... in that if they are put into a container, they will not expand to fill the container. Gases on the other hand, do the exact opposite - they expand to fill their containers, thus not having fixed volumes.
Why can't 10ml of liquid fill a 20ml container?
A 10 ML of liquid can't fill a 20 ML container because although liquids do not have a definite shape they have a definite volume.
How are gases different from solids and liquids?
they do not have a set volume, thus they completely fill any container that they are in.
How are solids liquids gases are different?
they do not have a set volume, thus they completely fill any container that they are in.
Do small amounts of liquids fill a large container?
yes
Fixed volume but match their container?
Solids are rigid and incompressible. Liquids have fixed volume but match their container. Gases completely fill their container.

What has the same volume in any container?
Liquids take the shape of the container that they are in.
Why can't 10ml of liquid fill a 20ml container?
A 10 ML of liquid can't fill a 20 ML container because although liquids do not have a definite shape they have a definite volume.
Liquids and gases are different from solids because they?
maintain their own shape and do not take the shape of their container.
What has a definite shape but the same volume in any container?
liquids
What is the matter in a gas state will out to fill its container?
it will move randomly and quickly to fill the empty space in the container..that's how the matter in a gas do to fill the container.. P/s: gas is matter that has mass and occupied space.
