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.

What phase of matter has a definite volume but not a definite shape?

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.
