a. soft.
b. liquids.
c. malleable.
d. gases.

Answer 1

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is known that most of the metals are solid at room temperature but with a few exceptions like mercury is a liquid at room temperature and sodium is a soft metal as it can be cut with a knife.

Also, metals are malleable in nature that is, they can be shaped into thin sheets.

But metals are never gases. Hence, we can conclude that at room temperature, none of the metals are gases.

Answer 2

Answer : At room temperature, none of the metals are gases.

Explanation :

The properties of metals are :

Generally all the metals are solid at room temperature but with exception, the mercury is liquid at room temperature.

Generally all the metals are hard but with the exception, sodium and potassium are soft and easily cut with the knife.

The metals are malleable, ductile, lustrous in nature.

Metals are good conductor or heat and electricity.

Hence, At room temperature, none of the metals are gases.
