Liquid metal is a metal or a metal alloy which is liquid at or near room temperature.
Only metal in a liquid state at room temperature.
At this temperature and ordinary pressure only two elements are liquids.
Mercury symbol is hg and atomic number 80.
A few elemental metals are liquid at or near room temperature.
For science it s usually considered to be either 20 c or 25 c.
Non metals liquid at room temperature bromine br.
The most well known is mercury hg which is molten above 38 8 c 234 3 k 37 9 f.
Hg symbol comes from hydrargyrum a latinized form of the greek word hydrargyros which is a compound word meaning water silver as it is commonly known as quicksilver.
Bromine is liquid at room temperature.
Mercury is the only metal which is in liquid state at room temperature.
Elements that are liquid at 25 c.
While mercury is the only liquid metal at room temperature the elements gallium cesium and rubidium melt under slightly warmer conditions.
The previous answer concerned common metals.
The only other element on the periodic table that is a liquid at room temperature and pressure is the halogen bromine.
Room temperature is a loosely defined term that can mean anywhere from 20 c to 29 c.
Metals that are liquids at room temperature are mercury hg and gallium ga.
However other elements such as caesium cs rubidium rb and francium fr also become liquids at a few degrees above room temperature.
There is not only one metal at room temperature depending on how you define room temperature metals liquid at.
Others include caesium cs which has a melting point of 28 5 c 83 3 f rubidium rb 39 c 102 f francium fr estimated at 8 0 c 46.
Mercury is the only common metal that takes the form of liquid at room temperature.
