Question

Solids can take the shape of their container ?

False, A solid will retain its shape; the particles are not free to move around. They are tightly packed together but for a liquid, they are loose and take the shape of the container. Depends on the liquid.

"False" solid's molicules are more compact. Liquid's molicules are less complact making it so that they can move, and take shape, but not hold one.
