Answer:

False.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Most liquids do not have ionized atoms or particles within them, as the state of matter does not really allow that to freely happen.

2. Liquids may not have a definite shape, however, they have a definite volume. No matter the container you pour them into, their volume remains constant.

3. Liquids are not good conductors of electricity. Take for example water. Pure water does not conduct electricity

Hence, the statement is false with regards to liquids. However, it is true when talking about the foruth state of matter - Plasma
