Answer:
Because of the behavior of the valence electrons, mercury has a low melting point, is a poor electrical and thermal conductor, and doesn't form diatomic mercury molecules in the gas phase. The only other element on the periodic table that is a liquid at room temperature and pressure is the halogen bromine.
