possibly because the liquid didnt have enough volume to fill the container also because logicaly we dont really fill a container to the rim instead we get a container that is a little bigger.............just the way the human body works
A solid does not take the form of the container; rather a solid maintains its own shape.

Answer 2:
A solid doesn't "fill a container". A person or a machine fills a container with a solid by placing/dumping the solid into a container. The solid may or may not fit into the container exactly.
Because the liquid is stuck to the other container that you want to use to pour into the container!
A solid (a block of wood, for instance) will retain its shape, even if placed in a large box, simply because it is a solid!
because its size and volume are definite
well, it depends on the size of the solid and container.
Gas completely fills its container, liquid stays as a unit and fills the container with respect to gravity, and solids do not fill their containers
liquid
Only if this matter is a gas.
A gas. Gas will expand to fill the available space.

All four states of matter could fill a container completely if there was enough of them.That said the properties of the 3 states of matter (that you need to know about for high/secondary school) are:Solid - Fixed shape and fixed volume.Liquid - No fixed shape but fixed volume.Gas - No fixed shape, no fixed volume and fill the space available.A large enough volume of liquid or solid could fill a container completely but only the smallest amount of a gas will fill the whole container.
It will completely fill the container.
A gas will completely fill whatever container it's in as it will diffuse until it's concentration is the same throughout the container.
Yes, a gas will always fill the container that it is in.
paste is a solid because it does not spread to fill the bottom of the container.
I'm assuming you mean state. Solids have a definite shape, unlike liquids, which take the shape of their container, and gases, which completely fill their container.
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.
The answer depends on the solid. If you dumped a large solid metal cube into a truck, it would not "spread outward" to fill a container. If you dumped small BBs (think BB gun BBs) into the same truck, the BBs would spread out & fill the container (if you poured enough of the BBs into the container to fill it). Both are solids, but one solid will not 'spread out' like the others.

maintain their own shape and do not take the shape of their container.
The gas expand to fill the volume of the container.
