Answer:
C.
Explanation:
The particles of a liquid are close together (no regular arrangement tho), always moving (this proves that letter b. is wrong), and can slide past one another. I also think the last choice is false since liquid molecules do not decrease just to fit the size of a container. If the container is small and you poured a larger amount of liquid, the liquid would definitely spill.
