Gases have no defined shape or volume. The easiest way to show this is that gas' can be compressed(squished down) into small spaces, and when they are released from the container they spread out (diffuse) as much as possible. Think of spraying a can of deoderant, the gas is compressed in the can and when you release it the gas will go everywhere...this also shows that the gas has no definite shape, it will take the shape of the container that its in. Going back to the earlier example, gas will take the shape of the deoderant can that's its in, but when released it will change and go everyhwere, giving it no definite shape.
