which group contain and element that is liquid stp

Answer 1

The only elements that are liquids at standard temperature and pressure (aka STP) are Bromine and Mercury.

If you look on the Periodic Table, you can find what Group those elements are in. Bromine as an atomic number of 35 and Mercury has an atomic number of 80.

The group is the vertical column they are in starting at Group 1 on the very left side of the Periodic Table (where we find Hydrogen, Lithium, Sodium and so forth) and going up to Group 18 on the very right of the Periodic Table (where we find Helium, Neon, Argon, and so forth)

Answer 2

Hello, Meilin,

This could be my favorite element, mercury (Hg), in Group 12. A metal that is liquid at room temperature.

Another favorite is gallium, Ga, which although is a solid at room temperature, melts at 103F. The story goes that playful royalty would have spoons made from gallium for use in hot tea prepared for important guests. The spoon would melt and disappear when placed in the hot beverage much to the guests' dismay.

But it is not liquid at room temperature, but will be if global climate change makes room temperature 103F.
