> The Answer:
> The element is Mercury (Hg)! Mercury is the only metal that exists as a liquid at room temperature and it is non combustible. The element has been used by humans for hundreds of years and at one point was used as to cure illnesses which didn't work as it is a deadly poison. Mercury can readily make amalgams which are combinations of metals by solid solution rather than melting. Lewis Carroll, the author of "Alice in Wonderland", who's character the Mad Hatter has foundation in individuals who undergo slow mercury poisoning having loss of nervous system and brain damage. A common use of mercury was mercury-vapor lights which have been replaced by sodium-vapor lights in many cities.
