A cup is used as a measure of volume. Thus a cup of liquid is a standard 'cup sized' volume of liquid.
Yes, liquid has a definite volume. It may change shape with different containers, but you always have the same volume of the liquid.

Litre is a standard metric unit of liquid or volume
A 'bulk' litre (or 'liter' in the US) is the volume of a liquid as measured, that is its actual volume. A 'standard' litre is the volume of the liquid if it were at standard temperature and density. It is possible to convert from one unit to the other if you know the temperature of the liquid (which can be difficult if it varies throughout its volume). In practice, the difference between the two only becomes significant for large quantities of liquid (thousands of litres) and for liquids that are traded by 'standard' volume (such as fuel oil). You need to know the 'bulk' litres if you are transporting a large quantity of fuel oil, because you need to know the actual volume of liquid. However, you need to know the 'standard' litres if you are buying or selling that same quantity of fuel oil as its price is based on 'standard' volume.
The SI unit for the volume of a liquid is the cubic metre.
Yes, water is a liquid and any given amount of liquid will contain the same volume. Although does not keep its definition shape. Meinert
That's not true. The molar volume of a gas is always greater than the molar volume of a liquid. I can't think of any exceptions to this.
Only liquid. Gas never has a definite volume. Both will always take the shape of their container though.A liquid
be careful always in reading.
A standard shot glass typically holds 1.5 ounces (44 mL) of liquid.
Liquids are capable of changing shape, but they will always have a constant volume. If one were to pour a liquid into a random container, it would conform to the container, but not change physical volume in the process.
