What characteristic describes a liquid's shape and volume?

  1. Definite shape and volume

  2. Definite volume but takes the shape of the container

  3. Indefinite shape and volume

  4. No fixed shape but fixed volume

The correct answer is: Definite shape and volume

The characteristic that describes a liquid's shape and volume is having a definite volume but taking the shape of the container. This means that a liquid will always fill the container it is placed in but will conform to the shape of that container. This property differentiates liquids from solids, which have definite shapes and volumes. Option A, which states "Definite shape and volume," is not correct because liquids do not have a definite shape, only a definite volume. Options C and D are also incorrect as they describe properties that do not accurately represent liquids.
