Solids fill their containers, and liquids have definite shapes.
Solids have definite shapes, and liquids fill their containers.
Solids particles will expand to fill their containers, and liquid particles will expand as well.
Solids particles expand to fill their containers, and liquid particles do not.

Answer 1

The second option

Step-by-step explanation:

The process of elimiation.

1. We know liquids dont have a definite shape, they will morph into whatever enviroment theyre in

3. Solids dont expand based on what container theyre in, they either dont fit or they do

4. We know that liquid expands, so we can also rule this one out.

Which leaves us with option 2 to be correct.
