People use Mercury because it has useful properties. It is a metal that is liquid at normal temperatures and conducts electricity It is dense (heavy) and so useful where added weight may be needed, as in clock pendulums It is a liquid and so will flow from one place to another
What else can I help you with?
What you can use instead of mercury?
Instead of mercury, you can use alternative materials like digital thermometers instead of mercury thermometers for temperature measurement. In addition, you can opt for alternatives such as lead-free solder in electronics and non-mercury batteries for environmental-friendly options.
Does Mercury have any people?
There has never been any evidence that Mercury supports life of any type.
What metal is use in thermoter?
Thermometers typically use a metal such as mercury or alcohol to measure temperature. Mercury thermometers are commonly used in applications such as medical settings, while alcohol thermometers are used in environmental monitoring due to their lower environmental impact.
Do mercury lamps contain mercury?
Yes, mercury lamps contain small amounts of elemental mercury vapor that is used to produce light when an electric current passes through it. However, advancements in lighting technology are reducing the use of mercury in lamps to minimize environmental impact.
What is Mercury obtained?
The consumption of fish is by far the most significant source of ingestion-related mercury exposure in humans, although plants and livestock also contain mercury. Exposure to mercury can occur from breathing contaminated air; from eating foods containing mercury residues from processing, such as can occur with high fructose corn syrup; from exposure to mercury vapor in mercury amalgam dental restorations; and from improper use or disposal of mercury and mercury-containing objects.Source:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury_poisoning

Who and when did people visit Mercury?
Nobody has visited mercury.
Why do OSHA and EPA and the AMA all discourage the use of mercury filled clinical thermometers?
When mercury filled thermometers break, the mercury is released. Mercury is toxic to people, pets and the environment. There is a long history of mercury from broken thermometers and other medical devices being improperly dealt with, or even ignored. Since there are adequate replacements for mercury thermometers, OSHA, EPA, AMA and others discourage the use of mercury thermometers and encourage their replacement with thermometers using other technologies.
Is there people on mercury?
no
What does mercury not have?
people!
Is Mercury in immunization shots?

Can people see the sun from mercury?
If you were on Mercury, the Sun would be huge!
What people think about the use of mercury?
You would have to ask around about what people think, but mercury (Hg, atomic #80) is a transition metal, and one of only two elements which are liquids at room temperature and standard pressure. It is toxic to humans by contact with skin, which absorbs it quickly. Its most common everyday use is in thermometers.
How would you use Mercury in a sentence?
