Mercurys surface temperature varies a lot, as it has a very slow rotation on its axis and no atmopshere to effectively hold a regular temperature. Mercurys surface temperature drops dramatically once it faces away from the sun. The side facing away from the sun can become very cold (100 Kelvin or -173'C at the equator, 80 Kelvin or -193'C nearer the poles), while the side facing the sun can see temperatures soar to 700 Kelvin at the equator (430'C).
Alcohol thermometers are generally better for low temperature measurements as they have a wider temperature range, reaching lower temperatures than mercury thermometers. Additionally, alcohol is less toxic than mercury, making it safer to use in certain applications.
Bromine is more reactive than mercury. Bromine is a halogen and is known for its high reactivity, while mercury is a metal known for its low reactivity.
Yes, mercury's vapor pressure is considered low at room temperature. Mercury is a heavy liquid metal that evaporates slowly at ambient conditions, resulting in a relatively low vapor pressure compared to other substances.
Liquid mercury is a good electrical conductor due to its high electron mobility and low resistivity. The electrons in the liquid metal are able to move freely, allowing for the easy flow of electric current. Additionally, mercury has a high density, which helps to facilitate electron conduction.
Yes, mercury was commonly used in alchemy as a symbol for transformation and was known as "quicksilver." Alchemists believed that mercury possessed both spiritual and physical properties that facilitated the transmutation of materials.

High pressure mercury lamps operate at higher pressures and temperatures, producing a bluish light with higher energy efficiency compared to low pressure mercury lamps. Low pressure mercury lamps operate at lower pressures and temperatures, producing a softer, more diffuse light with lower energy efficiency.
Highest temperature-100 degrees F. Lowest temperature-minus 80 degrees F.
Normal temp ranges are from 180 to 192 degrees F. Low temps can indicate an open thermostat, high temps can ruin an engine.
