Gases can NOT change shape because gases don't have a 'shape', it's the container in which they are held that has a shape)
Liquids and gases have no shape of their own.
they are fluid
I can only tell you that gases are does not have a difinite shape and volume . E.g air / nitrogen / carbon dioxide / water vapour / . . .
ANSWER unlike solids, both liquids and gases can change their shape to fit the container in which they are held. however, gases can also change volume unlike liquids.
Gases.
Solids keep their shape and volume, meaning they maintain a fixed structure and do not flow like liquids or gases. The particles in solids are closely packed together, giving them a fixed shape that can only be changed by applying external force.
Solids have a definite shape and do not easily take the shape of their container due to the strong intermolecular forces between their particles, which keep them locked in place. This characteristic distinguishes solids from liquids and gases, which can flow and take the shape of their container.
gases takes the shape and volume of the container
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.
A gas does not have a definite shape or volume.
In solids and liquids the molecules are already very close together so they can't be squeezed together much more than that. In a gas molecules are very spread out so they can be compressed .
Gases do not have a definite shape or volume. They take the shape and volume of the container in which they are confined. Gases are highly compressible and can expand to fill any space available to them.
Liquids adopt the shape of the part of the container that they occupy. Gases adopt the entire shape and volume of their container.
The shape of a gas can not be observed.
Only solids have a definite shape. Neither liquids nor gases have a definite shape.Only solids have a definite shape.

yes they can
Solid, liquid, gas. Even liquids don't have a shape. Gases are much too thin and slippery.
