Why not? Or, in other words, there's not really a "why" to explain here; it's an extension of a well-established trend (unlike Mercury, which is a liquid at room temperature while all the metals around it are solid and there's no such trend that would predict its dramatically lower melting point).
The trend for alkali metals is that they have lower melting points as you move down the table. By the time you get to caesium, it's only a little above room temperature, and the theoretical melting point for francium is even lower than that (but still slightly above room temperature).
What else can I help you with?
What is the state of matter of cesium at room temperature?
Caesium is usually a solid, but it does have a low melting point, and that's 83 °F (28 °C). This means that if you had a vial of caesium in your hand, and you were in a warm room, the caesium would melt. Caesium is one of only five metals that is a liquid at or near room temperature. Wikipedia has additional information on caesium. You'll find a link to their post on this element just down below here.
Are any pure elements liquids at room temperature?
Mercury is the only metal that is liquid at room temperature. There are other, non-metals that are also liquid at room temp, but I'm not certain which ones.There are 6 metals that are liquids at or near room temperature: Mercury, Caesium (Cesium), Gallium, Bromine, Francium, and Rubidium.
What is the normal phase of cesium?
Solid and Liquid it differs from websites. Solid and Liquid it differs from websites.
What is only metal liquid at room temperature?
its a metal richardMercury is a liquid metal at room temperature .
What is the physical state of bromine at room temperature?
Bromine is a liquid at room temperature.
Is caesium and francium liquid?
At room temperature caesium and francium are solids.
What is the viscosity of caesium?
This question is a non-sequitur. Viscosity is a property of liquids. Caesium is a solid at standard temperature and pressure. If you heated caesium until it was a liquid, the viscosity would decrease as you increased the temperature.
Name the metals and compounds which are in liquid state at room temperature?
The only common metal that is a liquid at room temperature is Mercury. Other metals are Caesium & Francium. i think!!
What is celsium's state of matter at room temperature?
Celsius is a measurement of tempurature. Caesium is an element that is a liquid at room tempurature.

What state of matter is caesium at room tempterture?
Caesium has a melting point of 28.4°C (83.2°F), which makes it one of only five elemental metals that are liquid at or near room temperature.
What four elemental substances exist in the liquid state at or near room temperature?
Mercury and bromine are both liquid at what is commonly considered room temperature. Gallium and caesium both melt at above room temperature but below normal human body temperature, while rubidium melts just above normal human body temperature. Francium would have a melting point below caesium's (but probably above normal room temperature) if you could collect enough of it in one place to actually see and keep it from vaporizing your laboratory (it's pretty highly radioactive, and chemically reactive to boot; caesium and rubidium are also highly chemically reactive).

Can compounds made of molecules exists as liquid?
Yes. The most common example is water, a molcular compound that is liquid at room temperature. In fact, nearly all room-temperature liquids are molecular compounds. Only two elements are liquid at room temperature, and ionic compounds have high melting points.
What A triglyceride that is liquid at room temperature?
Oils are liquid triglycerides, at room temperature that is.
