True
Liquid occupies a definite volume but has no definite shape. It takes the shape of the container is a correct statement.
In the liquid state, particles have close contact with each other so the liquid has a definite volume. Molecules in liquid can move or slide over one another this property is called fluidity. Because of this their shapes are determined by the container in which they are filled.
