Solution

The correct option is A True
In a liquid, the particles in contact with each other so, they have a definite volume. But spaces exist between the particles of liquid. Due to these spaces, the particles of liquid can move and are not in a fixed position as the solid particles. So, the liquids do not have a definite shape and, they take the shape of the container.
Hence, the correct option is true.
