Does a liquid take up a different amount of space than gas in a container?
Gas will always fill any container that it is in, since it will expand to fill any available space. Liquid does not expand, it has a fixed volume, therefore depending upon how much liquid you pour into your container, the container may or may not be filled.
How can gas fill a container of any size or shape?
it goes by the kind of car you use a t what brand gas was always used in it when u bought it. if you are buying a brand new car then u start it off of what kind of gas will be used and being that gas is a liquid it just flows in any kind of car hole because all cars have whole openings for gas. Personally I don't think the above person understood the question... A gas is able to fill a container because it has no fixed volume or shape, therefore using diffusion to fill the empty spaces; now you have a container full of a gas.
Do liquids always fill their container?
Gravity. The gravitational pull of the Earth will exert a force on anything with a mass and pull it towards the centre of the Earth. As we're essentially standing on the surface of a sphere, the centre of the Earth is pretty much straight down and gravity will pull liquids to the bottom of any container.

How can you observe gases?
by placing the gas into a container of any kind and it will simply fill up the whole container, therefore you can observe it and what it does.
Does a gas have a fixed shape or volume?
No, a gas can fill the space of any container
Does a liquid take up a different amount of space than gas in a container?
Gas will always fill any container that it is in, since it will expand to fill any available space. Liquid does not expand, it has a fixed volume, therefore depending upon how much liquid you pour into your container, the container may or may not be filled.
Does a vapour keep its shape?
No. It expands to fill any container it's in. If you pump it out of one container and into a different one, it changes its shape to match the new container.
What is true about gas?
a gas has a fixed shape and will expand or shrink to fill any container
How is gas able to to fill a container of any shape or size?
Because gas has no shape and gases adopt the shape of that container in which gas is placed.
