Solution

The correct option is D Gallium
Gallium and caesium are metals having such low melting points (29.76°C and 28.44°C respectively) that they melt at room temperature.

Sodium is a soft metal and can be cut with a knife but it is solid at room temperature as its melting point is around 97°C.

Bromine is a non-metal and is liquid at room temperature.
