This chemical element is mercury.
Mercury (Atomic number 80) is still used in some thermometers.
you will allways see mercury in conventional thermometers.
The element you're referring to is mercury. It is a liquid metal at room temperature and has been historically used in thermometers due to its high thermal expansion and ability to remain liquid across a wide temperature range. However, due to its toxicity and environmental concerns, the use of mercury in thermometers has been largely phased out in favor of safer alternatives.
There are several types of thermometers. Clinical thermometers are used to measure the body temperature of the patient. Ear Thermometers make it an accurate point to measure the body temperature. Pacifier thermometers are used to check the body temperature of babies or infants. Underarm thermometers are kept in the underarms to measure the body temperature. Not to mention the food thermometers that are often used for checking the heat of the oil or pop up to let you know when the meat is done.
Mercury is the element commonly used in liquid-in-glass thermometers.

Mercury is commonly used in thermometers due to its unique properties, such as its ability to expand uniformly with temperature changes. However, due to its toxicity, digital thermometers with safer alternatives like alcohol or gallium are now more widely used.

Mercury used to be a popular element for thermometers, but I think it's illegal to make a mercury thermometer because if you break one you have a hazardous situation on your hands. Today thermometers that contain liquid, almost always contain alcohol.
Platinum is often used in high temperature thermometers due to its ability to maintain stability and accuracy at elevated temperatures.
