Mercury is a good conductor of heat. Unfortunately, heat will produce vapor which is toxic.
As mercury has a low specific heat yet is a good conductor of heat it has been the choice for thermometers. The ease of reading is due to the fact that the mercury does not wet the walls of the glass.
No because only metals are good conductor of heat and gas is not a metal.
Copper is metal found in nature which is a good conductor of heat and electricity.
Samarium is a good conductor for heat and electricity.
No. Mercury is a poor conductor of heat.

All metals are heat conductors; mercury is not a special case.
All metals are heat conductors; mercury is not special (8,3 W/m.K).

Because you can see air
It's not, there are materials that are better, like diamond.
yes
Mercury is a metal and a good conductor.
