Question

what are the properties of a liquid?
a liquid has a fixed shape and a definite volume
a liquid has a fixed volume, but will assume the shape of the container it fills. liquids are not compressible
a liquid has a fixed volume and a definite shape, and is not compressible
a liquid has no fixed volume or shape

Explanation:

Liquids have a fixed volume as the intermolecular distance between their particles is relatively stable. They take the shape of the container they are in because the particles can move past one another. Also, liquids are generally considered non - compressible under normal conditions.

Answer:

A liquid has a fixed volume, but will assume the shape of the container it fills. Liquids are not compressible.
