Correct answer and explanation

Correct answer: Mercury

Explanation: āœ… Correct Answer: (B) Mercury šŸ“š Explanation: Mercury (Hg) is the only metal that remains in a liquid state at standard room temperature and pressure. It has a very low freezing point and is commonly used in thermometers. While Gallium can melt in the hand, it is solid at standard room temperature (25Ā°C). Bromine is also a liquid at room temperature, but it is a non-metal, not a metal.
