Mercury, the planet.
Mercury is the second smallest planet in the solar system, the smallest is Pluto. It is the closest planet to the sun; it is known as an inner planet. Its speed helps pervent it from getting sucked into the sun. It orbits round the sun in about 88 earth days but takes 58 earth days to rotate once. Mercury has no atmosphere so it is a poor place to live.
Mercury, the element
Mercury is a highly toxic element. Humans exposed to mercury can die from mercury poisoning. All old oral and rectal thermometers contained a cylinder of mercury; kids at home and in chemistry class used to deliberately pour out mercury to 'play' with it because mercury always splits into small balls that join and split from the main body of mercury in whatever amount. At the time, the health risks of being exposed and touching mercury were not known as they are known today.
Today, oral and rectal thermometers are digital and do not contain mercury. In the past, old thermometers were put in trash and trucked to landfills with all other garbage. This left small areas of contamination in the soil and ground water. Mercury must be disposed of as toxic waste; most health departments can take old thermometers for appropriate disposal.
Industries that contaminate the waters can cause fish to carry high levels of mercury. If humans eat the contaminated fish, it can lead to mercury-related illnesses.
Mercury has a melting point of -39.9
Mercury is a heavy, silvery metal that is a liquid at room temperature. It is highly toxic to humans and can cause serious health problems. Mercury is used in products such as thermometers, fluorescent light bulbs, and batteries, but its use is being phased out due to its harmful effects on the environment.
Mercury is a planet Mercury is a metallic element that is liquid at room temperature. Mercury (Hermes) was the messenger of the Roman/Greek gods.
Mercury is the smallest planet in our solar system and has the most eccentric orbit, meaning it is the most elliptical. It also has a very thin atmosphere composed mainly of oxygen, sodium, hydrogen, and helium. Additionally, Mercury's surface temperature can vary drastically, reaching up to 800 degrees Fahrenheit during the day and dropping to -290 degrees Fahrenheit at night.
