What characterizes a liquid state of matter?

Definite shape and volume
Definite volume but no definite shape
No definite volume but definite shape
No definite shape or volume

The correct answer is: Definite volume but no definite shape

A liquid state of matter is characterized by its ability to maintain a definite volume, meaning that the amount of space it takes up does not change. However, liquids do not have a definite shape and can take the shape of their container, allowing them to flow and conform to their surroundings. This is why option A is incorrect, as a definite shape is not a characteristic of liquids. Option C is incorrect because liquids do in fact have a definite volume. Option D is also incorrect because while liquids do not have a definite shape, they do have a definite volume.
