In the 1600s, barometers were relatively new inventions, primarily developed by Evangelista Torricelli in 1643. The cost of a barometer during that time varied significantly based on craftsmanship and materials, but it could range from a few shillings to several pounds. For many, this made barometers an expensive item, often considered a luxury for wealthy individuals or scientific institutions.
Because it has a high density... meaning that the volume increase or decrease due to altitude change is can be viewed in a practical sized barometer. If water, which had a much lower density, was used instead of Mercury, the barometer must be at least 15m high.
i checked the barometer to see the air pressure
The first barometer was made by the Italian physicist Torricelli in about 1640.
Barometer is an instrument used to measure atmospheric pressure.The first barometer was built by Francis Bacon. Later in 1644, Evangelista Torricelli, built the first instrument with mercury.
1643. But there's lots more interesting history available in the wikipedia article about the barometer.

Air pressure is measured with a barometer.
Well, an aneroid barometer, is called an aneroid barometer- but, a barometer measures air pressure, and an aneroid barometer is a barometer that contains no liquid.
Evangelise Torricelli invented the mercury barometer in the 1600s. It was very accurate, but it was clumsy to move and had to stay upright. If humans hadn't invented the aneroid barometer, you would see big mercury barometers in all types of transportation.
barometer has mercury inside it .
Because it has a high density... meaning that the volume increase or decrease due to altitude change is can be viewed in a practical sized barometer. If water, which had a much lower density, was used instead of Mercury, the barometer must be at least 15m high.
