The volume of a gas is the same as its CONTAINER.

Gases generally has no shape and no definite volume. When a gas is placed in a container, the gas usually takes the shape and the volume of the container, that is, the gas fills up all the available spaces in the container. Thus, the volume of a gas will always be the same as its container. This is in contrast with solids, which have definite shape and volume and liquids, which have definite volume but no fixed shape.
