A liquid will conform into a a container, so it it considered that forms of matter other than solids (like gases, liquids, and plasmas) have no definite shape.
What BEST describes the physical state of matter that has a fixed volume but takes the shape of its container- Semi-solid - Solid-- Gas or Liquid?

a solid because the particles don't move like your computer water doesn't have a definite shape because it moves and flows gas doesn't have a definite volume because it takes the shape of its container and plasma is just special

What is no definte shape and no definte volume?

Does nitrogen have a definite volume?
Yes, nitrogen has a definite volume in its gas phase as it fills up the container it is in. However, in its liquid or solid phase, nitrogen can take the shape of its container and does not have a definite volume.
What shape does gas take?
Gas will take the shape of whatever container it is in. One of the characteristics of a gas is that it has no definite shape or volume.
What is a state of matter that has a definite volume but takes the shape of its container?
Liquid. You can measure the exact volume of a liquid but you can put it into containers that changes the shape of the liquid.
Does xenon have definite shape and volume?
At normal temperature and pressure Xenon is a gas and, as with any gas, it does not have definite shape nor pressure.
Why a gas completely fills any container you it in?
since gas has no definite volume or shape it can be expanded or compressed, the particles will spread till they reach the walls of their container
What is definite shape of liquid?
It has no definite shape. The definition of a liquid is a substance that conforms to the shape of its container.

Do not have a definite shape but they have a definite volume?
WATER has no definite shape but has definite volume.
Why do liquids follow their container?

Does a liquid has a definite volume and definite shape?
It has a definite volume but no definite shape it change based on the container it's in.
