The shape of a liquid can be changed by putting it in a different shaped container. The volume can be changed (although hard to do) through extreme pressures and tempatures.
A gas can change shape but it doesn't change volume, a liquid also changes shape but doesn't change volume.
The shape can change, the volume will stay the same.
A liquid has a definite volume as it takes the shape of its container, but does not have a definite shape because it can flow and change shape based on its surroundings.
It means that the liquid takes the shape of its container, but its volume remains constant. This property is characteristic of liquids, where the particles are able to flow and move easily but do not expand to fill the entire space of the container.
No state of matter corresponds to this. Solids are the only state with definite shape, but they have a definite volume too.
By cooling the liquid.
A gas can change shape but it doesn't change volume, a liquid also changes shape but doesn't change volume.
the answer is liquid... as my science teacher says.
The shape can change, the volume will stay the same.
a liquid

A liquid.
A liquid has a fixed volume but not a fixed shape. If you put it into a graduated cylinder, it will take the shape of the cylinder. If you put it into a bowl, it will take the shape of the bowl.
A liquid has a definite volume as it takes the shape of its container, but does not have a definite shape because it can flow and change shape based on its surroundings.
A Liquid of course! It can change from containers but not the volume stabilizes.

Obviously, the liquid phase has definite volume but indefinite shape as it is normally observed that when liquid water is poured in a glass, it adopts the shape of glass prior to any change in volume.
