Why do ice cubes not take the shape of its container?

Ice cubes do not take the shape of their container because they are solid and maintain a fixed shape due to the rigid arrangement of their molecules. Unlike liquids, which can flow and conform to the shape of their container, solids have strong intermolecular forces that keep their structure intact. As a result, ice cubes retain their cubic form regardless of the container they are placed in.
