Does a solid substance has both a shape and volume of its own?
Yes. Liquids take the shape of a container but not the volume, and gases take the shape and volume of a container.
Which physical state has volume but no specific shape?
Liquid. Picture water in a glass. Now pour the water out of the cup and into a fishbowl. Now pour it into a party hat. Now pour it onto the floor (remember, only in your mind!) The shape of the liquid depends on the container its in, it has no inherent shape of its own. However, the amount of space actually occupied by the liquid (defined as volume) never actually changes. If you had 1 liter of water in a soda bottle, it would still be 1 liter whether it was in a bucket, or on the floor. This is in contrast to a solid which also has a specific volume, but also has a specific shape on its own, or a gas, which has no specific shape, but also no specific volume. The volume of a gas can be changed depending on pressure (ie: compressed air). On a related note, liquids are also described as incompressible, because their volumes can't be changed by changing pressures.
What has the shape of its own?
when a liquid is placed in a container it takes the shape of the container. raindrops and teardrops are a shape that liquids have when you use a dropper, when drops of water fall from a faucet

What type of matter has its own shape but no definite volume?

The phase of matter in which a substance has no definite shape or volume?
This is a good working description of the gaseous phase of matter. A sample of gas will assume the shape and volume of its container, so the sample has no shape or volume of its own.
What states of matter has its own shape?
A solid has a shape of its own. Liquids and gases take the shape of their container.
Which state of matter has a shape of its own?
A solid retains it's shape.
What two states of matter have their own shapes?
Solid is the only state of matter with its own shape
What is the state of matter that describes a substances having no definite volume or shape?
Liquid state....Example----Water....========================Another opinion is required, because liquid (example: water) has a definite volume.The gaseous state (example: air) doesn't. No matter what you put 1 gram of air in,it will always fill up the entire container, and take the same shape as the container.Gas has no definite volume or shape of its own.

A form of matter that has its own shape and volume?
Solids are the type of matter with contain their own shape. Liquids take the shape of the container they are in and gasses fill their container, so therefore, solids are the type of matter which have a shape of their own.
