All four states of matter could fill a container completely if there was enough of them.

That said the properties of the 3 states of matter (that you need to know about for high/secondary school) are:

Solid - Fixed shape and fixed volume.
Liquid - No fixed shape but fixed volume.
Gas - No fixed shape, no fixed volume and fill the space available.

A large enough volume of liquid or solid could fill a container completely but only the smallest amount of a gas will fill the whole container.
