    property of gas

    gas molecules are very loosely bonded with each other so the force between the molecules is very weak

    Due to this weak force the molecules of gas can attain any shape and any volume.

    So gas moles have no finite shape and no finite volume

    Property of Solids

    Solids are tightly packed and having very strong bond between the molecules

    If all molecules are tightly bonded then they have always a finite shape and finite volume so in this case we can not change the volume or shape of the solids as it is fixed.

    Property of Liquids

    Liquid molecules are moderately bonded together and since the force is more than the force between the gas molecules so liquids have finite volume but indefinite shape

    liquid attains the shape of the container but its volume is fixed

    So in above all examples Liquid is correct answer
