    Gas: Takes the shape and volume of an entire container.

    Solid: Has a fixed volume and shape.

    Plasma: Charged particles that do not have a definite shape or volume.

    Liquid: Assumes the shape of the part of the container from the bottom up.

    Explanation:

    Due to weak / negligible intermolecular or interatomic forces the gases tends to occupy the shape of the container. Hence, they are said to be having no definit shape and volume.

    Due to presence of stronger intermolecular forces as compared to gases liquids have definite volume but they don't have definite shape therefore, adopts the shape of the container from the bottom up.

    Solid state of matter is characterized by its hardness, definite shape and volume, rigidity and mechanical strength. They have the strongest intermolecular forces among the molecules.

    Plasma is said to be the fourth state of matter, which is the mixture of + ve ions, - ve electrons and neutral particles. It shares majority of the properties of gas state.
