Do liquid have a fixed temperature but no fixed shape?
A liquid (water) takes on the temperature you give it. You need to boil the water if you want to brew a cup of tea. Having brewed your cup of tea, it will take on the shape of the cup you use. Therefore, gas and liquids take on the shape of the container.
The shape of a liquid depends upon its?
A liquid takes the shape of its container.
What state of matter changes shape when placed into a container?
Both a gas (carbon dioxide) and a liquid (water) will take on the shape of the containers.
What does liquid matter take shape of?
It really depends what type of liquid you have, and its molecular arrangement. For example, a water particle (H2O) would take the shape of one oxygen and two hydrogen. However, in very vague models, water particles, as well as every other type are represented as circles with arrows signifying their movement patterns. In a liquid the particles are fairly tightly packed and are constantly rolling over the top of each other.
Can liquid define shape?
No. Liquids will take the shape of any container that they are put into.
What state of water does not take on the shape of its container?
Liquid
Can water be round or square-shaped?
As a liquid water has no defined shape. It will take on the shape of the container it is put in.
How is water able to take the shape of the bottom of the container it is stored in?
Water is a liquid, and its molecules move around freely, but still must respond to gravity. The molecules in liquid water do not have the ability to hold a shape by rigidly clinging to each other, so the liquid will take the shape of its container.
Does liquid have definite shape?
Yes
What is the shape of a liquid?
A liquid takes the shape of any solid that it is contained within. For example water within a square container will appear square, but water within a triangular container will appear triangular.
What does liquid take the shape of?
Liquids take the shape of their container.
Is there any substance like water which can take the shape of liquid gas and solid?
oil.

Why does liquid take the shape of a sphere when in zero gravity and gases does not?
It is due to surface tension. Surface tension is only for liquids. Due to surface tension surface energy is to be minimized only reducing the area. For a given volume sphere has minimum surface area. Hence spherical shape.

Why does liquid water take its shape of the container but an ice cube does not?
Liquid is much more tangible than ice if that's what your asking....
