Respuesta :

The answer is C
The gas is compressible and assumes the volume and shape of its container whereas a liquid is not compressible and assumes the shape of a portion.

C is the only one that says it assumes the shape of a portion. If you put water in your cup, it does not fill it all up. If you put water in a jar, it does not mean its equal in volume . If you put water in a jar, it does take the shape of the jar.

Gas is compressible and assumes volume and shape of its container while a

liquid is not compressible and assumes  the shape of a portion of its

container.

The liquid and gas states of matter have their atoms bouncing against each

other in what is referred to as elastic collision. Atoms move more freely in

gas than liquids.

Gas is compressible and assumes the volume and shape of its container while liquids aren't compressible and assumes just a portion of its container.
