Do you have to have an oxygen mask in mercury?

(1)The temperature of Mercury is about 100 degree celcius.Generally the human body cannot bear such a high temperature. (2)Human body needs Oxygen to survive.It is an essential factor for our body. (3)Recently scientist have discovered that there is no Oxygen on planet Mercury.So ,thats why we have to wear Oxygen mask on Mercury.


Why does mercury move When a foreign body comes close to it?

Mercury is a liquid metal that easily flows and responds to changes in the gravitational pull or forces from nearby objects. When a foreign body comes close to mercury, it can disrupt the equilibrium and cause the mercury to move in response to the new forces acting upon it.

Will radon gas cause high mercury levels in the body?

No. Nothing about radon has anything to do with mercury. Mercury is certainly not an element in the decay chain of radon on its way to becoming a stable isotope of lead. And radon is an inert gas. It can, under the most extreme conditions, be compounded with fluorine, but mercury? Forget it. It ain't happenin'. Note that radon is a radioactive hazard, and we need to be up to speed on what it is, how it works, the probability or our being at risk of exposure and what to do to mitigate radon buildup.


What is different about the astronomical body of planet Mercury?

Mercury is the smallest planet in our solar system and the closest to the Sun. It has a thin atmosphere and a large temperature variation between its hot days and cold nights. Mercury also has a high metal content, leading to its relatively high density compared to other planets.

How long does mercury stay in the body after exposure?

Mercury can stay in the body for several months to a year after exposure, depending on the type of mercury and the level of exposure.


Does mercury accumulate in your body once it is being consumed?

The exact answer depends on how the mercury is absorbed into the body as certain forms accumulate better within the body then others. Generally speaking, mercury is slowly removed from the body (typically taking several months), meaning that continued exposure would lead to the accumulation of mercury in the body.


Why is that mercury is used in thermometer?

Mercury is used in thermometers because mercury is the only liquid metal in room temperature. Hence our body temperature is observed by melting the liquid metal mercury due to our body temperature.

mercury is by no means the smallest body in space. however, it is the smallest of the inner planets.


How does a liquid thermometer show that you have a fever?

That type of thermometer has mercury in it, which is very heat sensitive. When used for taking a temperature, the heat from the body causes the mercury to rise. The amount the level of the mercury rises is determined by the body's temperature; the higher the temp, the higher the mercury rises.

IS mercury processed by the body differently when injected or ingested?

Yes, mercury is processed differently by the body when injected compared to when ingested. When injected, mercury bypasses the body's natural defense mechanisms and can directly affect organs and tissues. When ingested, mercury is typically processed through the digestive system, allowing some of it to be excreted before it can be absorbed into the bloodstream.


How long does it take for Mercury to get out of the body after eating fish?

Mercury is what is known as "bioaccumulative". This means that it does not in fact leave the body. The more you ingest into your body, the higher the concentrations of mercury will become in your system. This is one reason mercury ingestion (even in small quantities) is a problem.
