Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In liquids, molecules are held together by less strong intermolecular forces of attraction. As a result, there is some space between each molecule of a liquid.

Hence, the molecules of a liquid are able to slide through each other.

And, due to this a liquid substance does have a definite mass but it does have a definite shape as it occupies the shape of container in which it is kept.

Generally, liquids are not easily compressible as gases can be compressed more easily because molecules of a gas are held by weak vander waal forces.

Thus, we can conclude that indefinite volume is not a physical property of a liquid.

at standard pressure how do the boiling point and the freezing point of NaCl compare to the boiling point and freezing point of
Ede4ka [16]
Usually in this context you would be referring to the boiling and freezing point of a NaCl <em>solution</em> (saltwater) compared to pure H_{2}O. Sematics would be different for NaCl compound itself, you would say melting and boiling point for a solid substance- and the temperatures would be very, very radical (high). 
The boiling point of pure water is 100 degrees C (212 F), and the freezing/melting point is below 0 degrees C (32 F). For a salt water solution, the boiling point is raised and the melting point is lowered. This means that water will stay liquid for an increased range of temperature. Depending on the amount of NaCl solute in the water, the boiling and melting points may change a few degrees.
