Mercury is a metal. It is one of the only two elements (mercury and bromine) that bear a liquid state at approximate room temperature and is further classified as a 'transition metal'.
Mercury the liquid metal is also known as quicksilver
Mercury. is the only metal that is liquid at room temperature.
Mercury is a liquid at 2 degrees Celsius.
No, minerals are typically solid inorganic substances with a specific chemical composition and crystal structure. Liquids are a distinct state of matter characterized by their ability to flow and take the shape of their container.

Mercury is neither a mineral nor a rock- it is a metal. Just happens to be liquid at room temperature.
Mercury is a metal. It is one of the only two elements (mercury and bromine) that bear a liquid state at approximate room temperature and is further classified as a 'transition metal'.
Minerals containing mercury are solid salts of the metal (e.g. cinnabar, corderoite, livingstonite, vermilion, calomel). The liquid metal must be extracted from these ores by smelting, as it does not exist in the metallic form naturally.
No, because the metal mercury which is a liquid at room temperature, does not occur naturally in the "native" state. It is usually found as Cinnabar (Mercuric oxide). It is an element.
No, mineral spirits is not the red liquid in a thermometer. The red liquid commonly found in thermometers is typically either mercury or alcohol-based. Mineral spirits, on the other hand, is a type of solvent used for cleaning and removing paint.
The liquid metal "mercury" (also known as quicksilver) is not connected with the planet of the same name. The metal is refined on Earth from the mineral "cinnabar" (mercury sulfide).
The clear liquid inside a Galileo thermometer is typically a hydrocarbon-based liquid, such as ethanol or mineral oil. This liquid expands and contracts with temperature changes, causing the glass spheres with different densities to float or sink.

The red liquid in a liquid-in-glass thermometer is mineral spirits or ethanol alcohol mixed with red dye. A grey or silver liquid inside the thermometer is mercury. Mercury thermometers are not used anymore due to the dangers associated with mercury.
The liquid in non-mercury thermometers is typically a colored alcohol, such as ethanol or dyed mineral spirits. These liquids expand and contract with temperature changes, allowing the thermometer to measure and display the temperature accurately.
