Matter having a definite volume but no definite shape is called a liquid.

Here's why:

* Definite Volume: Liquids occupy a fixed amount of space. For example, a cup of water will always have the same volume, no matter what container it's in.

* No Definite Shape: Liquids take the shape of their container. They flow and conform to the boundaries of their surroundings.
