Rita has two small containers, one holding a liquid and one holding a gas. Rita transfers the substances to two larger containers. Compare the behavior of the atoms in the liquid and in the gas once they are moved to the larger containers.

Because liquids flow freely, they take the shape of the container they are in, but have a definite volume. Like liquids, the shape of a gas changes with the container. This is because the atoms in a gas move rapidly and freely to fill any available space. Unlike liquids, the volume of a gas changes depending on the container it is in.

Hoped that help :)
