Mercury, it is already molten at room temperature.

Alkali metals also have relatively low melting points compared to most metals, e.g. melting point of potassium is 64 degree Celsius. The melting points of alkali metals decreases down Group I.

All these temperatures are in Celsius, from the WebElements Periodic Table (www.webelements.com)

Gallium: 29.8 Celsius

Sodium: 97.7

Potassium: 63.38

Rubidium: 39.31

Cesium: 28.44

Francium: 27 (although I'm surprised they got enough to measure its MP)

Indium misses at 156.6, and lithium at 180.54. Mercury's MP is -38.83.

Mercury is the greatest exception, because it is liquid at room temperature. The metal with the next lowest melting point is gallium.


Melting temperature of metal?

The melting points of metals would depend on the metal itself- different metals have different melting points. A website is available under "related link" which contains information about the melting points of different metals.
