True / False

The only non-metal which is liquid at ordinary temperature is $$Br_2$$.

ATRUE
Correct Answer
BFALSE

Solution

Bromine $$(Br_2)$$ is the only non-metal which is liquid and diatomic molecule at room temperature. It is a dense, reddish-brown liquid evaporating at standard temperature and pressure to give an orange vapour. It is one of the only two elements on the periodic table that are liquids at room temperature other than mercury. So the given statement is true.
