Of the three classic phases or states (solid, liquid, gas), gases do not have a defined shape or volume, which is determined by the shape and volume of their containers. A sample will have a defined mass, and the volume into which that mass is confined determines the pressure of the gas.
No, a phase is a physical characteristic. The substance may or may not have definite shape and volume.
The state of matter that has no fixed shape but has a definite volume is a liquid. In a liquid, the particles are more loosely packed compared to a solid, allowing them to move and flow, taking on the shape of their container while maintaining a constant volume.
a solid
The solid phase of matter typically has the strongest attraction between particles, as they are closely packed and held together by strong intermolecular forces. This results in particles vibrating in fixed positions, which gives solids a definite shape and volume.
liquid, gas, and plasma phases must be contained to remain in the same shape. Solid retains it's shape without containment.
A state of matter having definite volume but no definite shape is called, "liquid".

Solids are the only phase of matter which have a fixed shape and volume.

Liquids have definite volume but not definite shape.A state of matter having a definite volume but no definite shape is a liquid.Liquid has a definite volume, with no definite shape. A way to rememberthis, is to think of it as a scale, and that everything gets more and more loose as it goes from solid to liquid to gas, and so it looses definite volume and definite shape as the scale goes on. I hope this helped.-Teek.
