You are a chemist working in your laboratory. In your storage closet you have a

cabinet that holds only samples of pure elements, no compounds. While looking for a
sample of lithium (LI), you notice that the label on one bottle has worn off. The room is
at normal temperature. The contents of the bottle are liquid and do not look metallic.
What element should you relabel the bottle as?

A.Helium
B.Bromine
C.Arsenic
D.Chlorine
