Because a solid is.. well, solid. Liquids morph, because they aren't "hard"
Liquids and gases can take the shape of their containers because their particles are free to move and flow. In contrast, the particles in solids are tightly packed and can only vibrate in place, preventing them from taking the shape of their container.
Liquids and gases adopt the shape of their container, while solids maintain their own shape regardless of the container.
Liquids and gases share the property of changing shape in different containers. Liquids take the shape of their containers due to their ability to flow and conform to the shape of the container. Gases also fill the space of their container, taking its shape as they expand to fill the available volume.
Solids and liquids both have fixed volumes... in that if they are put into a container, they will not expand to fill the container. Gases on the other hand, do the exact opposite - they expand to fill their containers, thus not having fixed volumes.
Solids have a definite shape and volume, while liquids have a definite volume but take the shape of their container. Gases have neither a definite shape nor volume and expand to fill their container.
The two states of matter that are considered fluids are liquids and gases. Both have the ability to flow and change shape to fit their containers.

Solids have particles that are closely packed and have strong forces of attraction between them, resulting in a fixed shape. In contrast, liquids and gases have particles that are further apart with weaker forces of attraction, allowing them to flow and take the shape of their container.
Liquids and gases are both considered fluids because they can flow and take the shape of their container. They both have the ability to move and are not held in a fixed shape like solids. Additionally, both liquids and gases can expand and contract based on changes in temperature and pressure.
Solids have a fixed shape and volume, with particles that are closely packed and vibrate in place. Liquids have a fixed volume but take the shape of their container, with particles that are close together but can move past each other. Gases have no fixed shape or volume, with particles that are far apart and move freely.
Liquids yes, gasses yes, solids no
Solids have a definite shape and volume because their particles are closely packed and do not move past one another easily. In contrast, liquids have a definite volume but take the shape of their container, while gases do not have a definite shape or volume as their particles are far apart and move freely.
I can only tell you that gases are does not have a difinite shape and volume . E.g air / nitrogen / carbon dioxide / water vapour / . . .
The molecules of liquids and gasses are not tightly arranged or packed. It is due to this arrangement they can move freely. Thus, take the shape of the container. Whereas in solids the molecules are tightly arranged they don't have place to move. Thus ,they don't take the shape of the container.
Liquids and gases adopt the shape of their container, while solids maintain their own shape regardless of the container.
The common properties of solids is that they have definite shape and a definite volume. They do not take the shape of the containers like the liquids.
Solids have a set volume. Liquids have a set volume. Gases do not have a set volume. Why? Solids are solids. They don't move. They're in a 'frozen state' as is. Liquids 'mold' to the shape of their container and they stay there. Gases are free to go anywhere. Always moving and 'flying.'
A solid has a definite size and shape, meaning that its particles are closely packed together and do not move around freely. The arrangement of the particles gives the solid a well-defined volume and form.
