Answer:


\boxed {\boxed {\sf Solids \ and \ liquids}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's review the 3 main states of matter:

Solid:

  • Particles vibrate, but are stationary. The solid doesn't change under normal conditions.
  • Definite shape and volume

Liquid:

  • Particles flow and glide. The liquid fills the container.
  • Indefinite shape, definite volume

Gas:

  • Particles fly around rapidly. The gas fills it's container and is very compressible.
  • Indefinite shape and volume

So, we see that the 2 states of matter with definite volume are solids and liquids.
