They are grown in Agar, as opposed to water (or any aqueous solution) because if the metal is grown quickly, as it would be in water, the crystals that are formed are hard to see, and their shape is usually undefined. However when they're grown in Agar jelly, the process is significantly slowed down, and after 1-2 days when you observe it, the crystals are usually larger and the shape can be clearly made out (providing you did the experiment right).

Is liquid metal a chemical property?
The fact that a metal (mercury) is a liquid at room temperature is a characteristic property of the metal, mercury. The temperature at which a metal melts to become liquid would be a chemical property of the metal.
Is sodium metal composed of molecular crystals?
No, sodium metal is not composed of molecular crystals. Sodium metal is a pure elemental form of sodium, and it consists of a crystalline structure with a metallic bonding arrangement between the atoms.
Which is the non metal which is a liquid at room temperature?

What is the name of a liquid non-metal?
Bromine is a liquid non-metal at room temperature.
Is mercury malleable or not malleable?
Mercury is a liquid metal.
Is Mercury liquid crystal?
Hg is the only liquid metal at room temperature, melting point 234.32 K, (-38.83 °C, -37.89 °F)Together with Bromine it is one of the only two liquid elements, all others are solid and only some (11) are gaseous.

What is liquid metal was used in thermometersr?
Mercury is a liquid metal used in thermometers. However, it becomes a solid at -37.9 F and it can cause mercury poisoning if ingested or inhaled. Therefore, most theremometers use ethyl-alcohol or a plastic strip covered with liquid crystals (called a liquid crystal thermometer).
Is mercury irritable?
No, the liquid metal itself is rather inert, though the vapor is toxic.
How do you apply acetone to metal before welding?
In general, you would not. Acetone is a rather flammable liquid.
What is a metal crystals?
Metal crystals describe the crystal structures that are found in metals. Once metals freeze and become solid, crystals are formed from the atoms.
Is copper a liquid or a metal?
No, not liquid (mercury is the only liquid metal known) Yes, it is a metal!
Are crystal always formed by ions?
No, not all crystals are formed by ions. Some crystals are formed by covalent bonds, where atoms share electrons, rather than by the attraction of ions. Additionally, some crystals can be formed by metallic bonds, where electrons are delocalized among a lattice of metal atoms.
