Plasma is the state of matter where the substance is ionized and has no definite shape or volumen. The fact of being ionized makes the substance a good electrical conductor.

Answer is: plasma.

There are five fundamental states of matter (gas, liquid, solid, plasma and Bose–Einstein condensate).

In solid, molecules are closely packed, stiff and do not changes of shape or volume. Solid object (for example iron) does not take on the shape of its container.

Liquids have definite volume, but no fixed shape.

Gases (for example nitrogen and neon) not have definite volume and fixed shape, it depends on its container.

Plasma is a an ionised gas with highly electrical conductivity.
