Solution
The correct option is B Bromine
The only non-metal that is liquid at room temperature and normal pressure is a halogen called Bromine. At room temperature, it is a reddish-brown fuming liquid with the unpleasant chlorine-like smell. This is responsible for its name, which comes from the Greek word ′bromos′, meaning stench.
