The element cadmium is above Mercury in the Periodic Table. And above cadmium is the element zinc. They're similar. Use the link below to see the Wikipedia periodic table. It's an interactive table, and each element is a link to the Wikipedia post on that element. Bookmark this table, friends. It's a great homework and reference tool!

Those two elements (Cd and Zn) are similar to Hg because they are in the same group/family. Elements that are grouped into families are done so because they are have similar characteristics.
