What else can I help you with?
Would a human freeze on Mercury?
On the night side, yes.
What temperature must a deep freeze be to solidify mercury?
The temperature that mercury needs to be to solidify is -38.02 degrees fahrenheit.
How cold would it have to be in order to freeze a mercury thermometer?
Mercury freezes at -38.83°C (-37.89°F). In order to freeze a mercury thermometer, the temperature would have to be lower than this point. However, prolonged exposure to temperatures below freezing may damage the thermometer.
Would a person freeze or burn on mercury?
A person would not freeze or burn on the surface of mercury in the traditional sense, as mercury is a liquid metal at room temperature. However, exposure to mercury can be extremely hazardous due to its toxic properties. If a person were to come into contact with mercury, they could suffer from mercury poisoning rather than freezing or burning. Additionally, mercury's high density means that a person would not sink into it as they would in water, but rather float, which could lead to other dangerous situations.
What had you freeze the mercury?
The freezing point of mercury is -38,829 0C.
Why use mercury for a thermometer?
Because it does not freeze or evaporate
Why can't aliens live on Mercury?
Probably because Mercury is the closest planet to the sun making it temperatures of up to 430 degrees Celsius and if aliens were to live there they would probably freeze to death if they came to our planet.
Could humans explode onmercury?
Possibly they could, but unfortunately, they would be incinerated to ash in a few milliseconds. Well, assuming that they were on the side of Mercury facing the Sun. If they were on the dark side of Mercury, then they would simple freeze solid, and THEN turn to ash when 'daylight' next arrived.
If aliens were real could they live on Mercury or would they burn?
Depends. They would probably burn if they were on the side facing the sun or freeze if they were on the side away from the sun, since mercury does not rotate. The planet has no atmosphere and the temperatures are considered too extreme to support life by most astrobiologists.
Does Mercury freeze?
Yes, mercury (Hg) freezes at about -39 degrees Celsius (-38 Fahrenheit)
Why can a liquid mercury thermometer only be used between -40 and 360?
The range of -40 to 360 degrees Fahrenheit is within the melting point and boiling point of mercury, ensuring that the mercury remains in liquid form and does not solidify or vaporize. Outside this range, the thermometer would not function accurately as the mercury would either freeze or evaporate.
What are some examples of liquids that don't freeze?
Some examples of liquids that do not freeze at typical temperatures include liquid nitrogen, liquid helium, and liquid mercury.
