Gases do not have a definite volume, which means that they can be expanded and compressed, depending on the pressure the gas is under. Gases also do not have a definite shape, so they take the shape of whatever container they are in. Unlike gases, liquids do have a definite volume because they are not easily compressed. However, like gases, liquids take the shape of their container, too. Solids have definite volume and definite shape.
A liquid has a definite volume (size) that is not changed by the container, but not a definite shape.
A liquid takes the shape of any solid that it is contained within. For example water within a square container will appear square, but water within a triangular container will appear triangular.
gases takes the shape and volume of the container
All liquids have a fixed volume and takes the shape of its Container.
Yes, the shape of a liquid takes on the container's shape.
no
A gas or a plasma takes on the entire size (volume) and shape of its container. A liquid takes the shape of its container but always has a definite size (volume) and may not completely fill its container.
A gas will take on the size and shape of a container. Liquids and solids will not.
Yes. A gas will take on both the shape and size of tis container.
Matter in the liquid state can take the shape of a container. However, a liquid has a definite volume. On the other hand, a gas can do both, that is take the shape and volume or size of a container.

Something that takes the shape of the container it is in. E.g. Water takes the shape of the container which it is in.
A liquid has a definite volume but an indefinite shape. It takes the shape of its container.

Liquids and gases will "take the shape" of their container.

It doesn't! It takes the shape of whatever container you put it in. At least, it takes the shape of the floor of the container.
No definite shape, it takes the shape of the container
