What happens when gold silver iron zinc tin lead copper and mercury are mixed?

You get an alloy that makes no sense at all.
Mercury, silver, tin and copper combine to produce dental amalgam, which is used in fillings.
Tin and lead are used in solder (or at least used to be - thanks to the Reduction of Hazardous Substances, or ROHS, laws, solder is now lead-free) because the melt temperature is fairly low, but high enough that the thing you soldered together won't fall apart if it overheats. Throw a little copper and antimony in there and you get babbitt, which is a perfect metal for engine bearings.
Brass is copper and zinc. Bronze is copper and tin.
Iron is typically alloyed with carbon (this is steel). Then you can coat the steel with other metals. Coating with zinc is galvanizing, done to protect against rusting. Drawing steel into wire then coating it with copper gives the perfect radio-frequency cable - as strong as steel, as conductive as copper.
And silver, copper and gold alloy together to produce karat gold.
There are good reasons to alloy every metal on this list. But all in the same product? No. You'd have a very expensive, not very strong, potentially hazardous metal.

Silver nitrate mixed with copper?
Silver nitrate and copper will undergo a double displacement reaction to produce copper (II) nitrate and silver. 2AgNO3 + Cu --> Cu(NO3)2 + 2Ag
What happens when sulphuric acid is mixed with copper oxide and heated?
It makes copper sulphate + water :)

Does s25 sterling silver cause a green ring?
No. What causes skin to turn green is when the metal is copper or mixed with copper.
What elements can you mix with the silver?
Several high melting elements may be mixed with molten silver as Lead, Copper, Gold.
What other metals might gold be mixed with it to make an Alloy?
Gold is alloyed with copper, silver, platinum, palladium, mercury.
What is amalgam used for?
An amalgam of mercury with another metal. Amalgam as used in teeth with such metals as silver, copper, tin, zinc or indium being mixed with mercury

How is mercury used in fillings?
Mercury, as the only metal that is liquid in its normal stage, has the capability of mixing with a metal and make it managable into a cavity ( a prepared tooth when decay is removed). The mercury is mixed with silver, tin and copper in a one-on-one ratio, This mixture is called an amalgam, as any metal mixed with mercury is termed "amalgamated". When the mix is placed into the tooth preparation, it hardens and the tooth has a an amalgam restoration or filling.

When happens when hydrochloric acid is mixed with copper?
Absolutely no reaction, that's because copper is less active than hydrogen. ;)
