Mercury form with gold (and generally with the majority of metals) an alloy called amalgam.
mercury
No,mercury is not an alloy. It is an element.
With the exception of mercury and bromine, which is a liquid, metals are solid at room temperature.
As compared to other metals, mercury is a poor conductor of heat but a fair conductor of electricity. Mercury has an exceptionally low melting temperature for a d-block metal.
One of the causes of environmental hazard is heavy metals. However, light pollution, Mercury, and molds are also other environmental hazards.
Biological Decomposition of Environmental Pollutants-Biodegradable Pollutants such as plastic bags. Some of the most notable air pollutants are sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, carbon monoxide, ozone, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and airborne particles, with radioactive pollutants probably among the most destructive ones (specifically when produced by nuclear explosions). Our Air Pollutants article provides a clear overview of sources and effects of these air pollutants. Water pollutants include insecticides and herbicides, food processing waste, pollutants from livestock operations, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), heavy metals, chemical waste and others. Some soil pollutants are: hydrocarbons, solvents and heavy metals.

The pollutants found in Venice canals include organic waste and sewage, heavy metals, debris and litter, oils and greases, and pollutants from boat traffic. These pollutants can have negative effects on the water quality and the ecosystem of the canals. Measures are being taken to reduce these pollutants and protect the canals' environmental health.
Mercury is the only metal with mercury in it.
Acid deposition, pH in water decreases, increases amount of metals in soil: mercury, lead and aluminum.
Mercury (Hg), zinc (Zn), sodium (Na) and Aluminum (Al) are called METALS
It stands for the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. It determined acceptable levels for certain metals in our environment, and was written back in 1976. It specifically monitors levels of 8 different metals that have special environmental concerns. Those metals, called the RCRA-8 metals, are arsenic, barium, cadmium, chromium, lead, mercury, selenium and silver.
Pollutants that come from septic tanks are microbes and metals. But it is not always a given.
