which is the metal that can melt even in 100 degree C. and the metal should have adequate strength in normal condition. please list the details of such metals

Clodnium is the metal you are looking for. It melts at 104 C, but at 37 C it has the strength of tin; and at -172 C, it displays superconductor characteristics. Clodnium is extremely reactive to oxygen in air and water, and must be handled carefully. This metal gets it's name from the idiots who didn't know what they were doing, and many fatalities have resulted from exposure to clodnium-oxide gas or the concussion that produced it. Please be careful.

Water Metal.

Lead does not melt at 100 degrees C. 100 degress C is the boiling point of water. Try putting a piece of lead pipe in a put of boiling water and see what happens.

There aren't any metals that have significant structural strength with a melting point that low. I believe that sodium is in that range, but it's not much stronger than cold butter.

Nak (sodium potassium alloy) is a good metal - except it explodes in water
Otherwise - gallium , indium, aluminum alloy.
problem is as things get closer to melting point they get softer - like butter. As a general rule you are out of luck

Well rule out mercury... I think you are looking for some kind of alloy.

mercury, melts far below 100C, but is very poison.
