Caesium melts at 28.44oC, which is the lowest known melting point for any metallic element other than Mercury. Certain radioactive elements might have lower melting points if it were possible to collect a large enough quantity of them to actually determine the melting point. For example, the melting point of francium is expected to be lower than that of caesium (but still higher than that of mercury). Also, some alloys melt at low temperatures. A eutectic alloy of sodium and potassium melts at around -12oC, still higher than mercury, but below caesium (and well below either sodium or potassium alone as well).
Tungsten is the metal with the highest melting point at 3695 K, 3422 °C, 6192 °F and Mercury has the lowest metal melting point with 234.32 K, -38.83 °C, -37.89 °F.
Mercury Hg -38.8' Now you could consider Hydrogen to be a metal if you are willing to get creative with the definition of metal. In that case it would be −259.16 °C
Mercury has the lowest melting and boiling points in its period because it is a transition metal with a relatively small atomic size and weak metallic bonding. This results in weaker forces holding the atoms together, making it easier for the metal to transition between solid and liquid states at lower temperatures compared to other elements in the same period.
Helium has the lowest melting point of all the non-metals. It melts at a temperature of -272.2 degrees Celsius.
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.
Mercury is the metal that has the lowest boiling point, which is around 2 degrees Celsius after melting.

I believe mercury has that melting point, as it is the only metal that is liquid at room temperature.

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

Knowing what the options are for the answers would be helpful to know which has the lowest melting point. Without knowing what transition metals are listed in the answers it is hard to know which is correct.
