Water can't be compressed.

Water, like anything else, can be compressed. The change in volume even at huge pressure is very small, but the extent of compressibility is not an element of this question

a solid has a fixed ---and cannot be?

A solid has a fixed shape and volume and cannot be compressed


A certain substance a cannot be compressed but takes up the shape of any container in which it is placedwhat can be its physical state?

It it takes the shape of the container, it can not be a solid. So, that narrows it down to being a liquid or a gas. A gas is easily compressed, so, the answer is most likely it is a liquid. Caveat: liquids can be compressed, but not easily.


Why are gas can be compressed into smaller volume but solid cannot?

The atoms in air are farther apart than the atoms in a solid.


What are More detail about the difference between solid liquid and gas?

Solids: they have fixed shape and fixed volume. They cannot be compressed much. They cannot flow. They do not fill their container completely. They have high density. They are heavy. Liquids: they have fixed volume but not fixed shape they take the shape of their container. They cannot be compressed much. They can flow. They do not fill their container completely. They have moderate to high density. Gases: they do not have fixed shape and volume. They can be compressed easily. They can flow. They fill their container completely. They have very low density.

Why liquids are incompressibility?

Liquids are cannot be compressed because the particles are close together and compact- this means that the particles cannot get closer together. Therefore liquids can't be compressed.
