Many elements do, the the most reactive ones are the metals on the left column of the Periodic Table: Lithium, Sodium, Potassium, etc. (they react almost explosively with chlorine).

Is Mercury inert?

Mercury isn't very reactive but it is in no way chemically inert. It reacts with sulphur fairly readily and so sulphur is used to treat mercury spills. It reacts with oxygen to make the fetching red dye, cinnabar. And it reacts readily with the group 7 elements, fluorine, chlorine and bromine. But it is one of the less reactive metals, demonstrated by its nearness to gold and platinum in the transition metals of the Periodic Table.
