That statement is False.
Most metals are in the solid state at room temperature. The only metal that is in liquid state in the room temperature is Mercury, (Hg)
Answer:
Sulfur: -1
Carbon: 0
Nitrogen: 0
Explanation:
The thiocyanate ion SCN- can have only two resonance structures, which are:
S - C ≡ N <--------> S = C = N
In the first structure, we have one single bond and one triple bond, in this case, the negative charge is located in the sulfur. This is because Sulfur have 6 electrons and those electrons are present in the atom, (see picture below), and counting the electron that is sharing with the Carbon, the total electrons that sulfur has is 7 (It has one more than usual). Carbon and nitrogen are already stable with 0 of formal charge, because carbon can only have 4 electrons which 1 is sharing with sulfur and the other 3 with the nitrogen, and nitrogen have 5 electrons, three sharing with carbon and the other two kept it for itself.
In the second structure, the negative charge of the sulfur is transfered to the nitrogen, meaning that it has 6 electrons the nitrogen (formal charge -1) and carbon and sulfur with 4 and 6 electrons respectively.
Between these two structures, the most stable is the first one basically because Sulfur is a better nucleophile than the Nitrogen, and can form stronger hydrogen bond in acid, giving more stable structure.
The answer would be B: In the Earth’s atmosphere!.

Answer: condenstation.
Justification:
The polymerization by condensation is a well know chemical reaction in which two monomers ("small" molecules), each with (at least) two functional groups, combine and relase water as by-product. Actually, even if the by-product released is not water, yet the reaction is called condenstation, since the mechanism is basically the same.
An example of such reaction is the manufacturing of nylon 6,6, which is produced from adipic acid and 1,6-diamine hexane:
HOOC - [CH₂]₄ - COOH + nH₂N - [CH₂]₆ - NH₂ → - nylon - + nH₂O
I omitted the formula of nylon because it is large, and that is not the core of the question but the fact the kind of reaction: two molecules combine to form is a larger molecule, and water is released
