✓ Answer: A All metals (except Mercury) are in the liquid form and are soft.
'All metals (except Mercury) are in liquid form and are soft' is incorrect because, in reality, most metals are solid at room temperature and have varying degrees of hardness. While mercury is indeed the only metal in liquid form at room temperature, metals like iron, copper, and aluminum are generally hard. Additionally, metals are shiny, malleable, and ductile, with high melting and boiling points.
