Solution

The correct option is A Mercury

A gas is a substance with no definite volume and no definite shape.

Solids and liquids have volumes that do not change easily.

A gas, on the other hand, has a volume that changes to match the volume of its container.

The molecules in a gas are very far apart compared with the molecules in a solid or a liquid.

Mercury is a liquid in a state thus it does not have a definite shape but has a definite volume.
