Mercury (chemical symbol Hg, from the Latin name of the metal, hydrar-gyrium, liquid silver), previously also known as quicksilver is, at ordinary temperatures, a silvery white liquid metal that boils at 360°C. The metal is occasionally found in nature in the native state. Most mercury has been derived, however, from the red mineral cinnabar (composed of mercuric sulfide) that was also used in the past as a red pigment known as vermilion (see Textbox 41). The Greek philosopher Aristotle, writing in the fourth... 

Mercury (Hg, [Xe + 4/14]5 /l06.v2), named after the planet Mercury (dedicated to the Roman God Mercurius), the symbol came from the Latin name hydrargyrum (liquid silver). Known since ancient times. 

The effect of salt is to fix or volatilize, according as it is prepared and used. For the spirit of the salt of tartar, if extracted by itself without any addition, has power to render all metals volatile by dissolution and putrefaction, and to dissolve quick or liquid silver into the true mercury, as my practical directions shew. 

Mercury - the atomic number is 80 and the chemical symbol is Hg. The name derives from the Roman god Mercury , the nimble messenger of the gods, since the ancients used that name for the element, which was known from prehistoric times. The chemical symbol, Hg, derives from the Greek hydragyrium for liquid silver or quick silver.

The substance mercury has been described in many ways, but the following description is appropriate here the hottest, the coldest, a true healer, a wicked murderer, a precious medicine and deadly poison, a friend that can flatter and lie . Named after the planet Mercury, it is a metal but, unlike all other metals, it is liquid at normal temperatures (that is, at room temperature or 2i°C). Its Latin name is hydrogyrum (hence its chemical symbol Hg), meaning liquid silver, a name given to it by Aristotle. 

Elemental mercury, which is a liquid, is found in the free state in rocks, for example the mercury mines in Slovenia and Spain. It was known as quicksilver and its Latin name, hydragyrum (from which its chemical symbol, Hg, is derived), means liquid silver. It is also found combined with sulphur in brightly coloured cinnabar, and with oxygen. 

Silver and silver selenide thin films were prepared from a series of liquid silver precursors containing /3-diketonates and phosphite ligands (Table 5) as demonstrated by Shim and coworkers. In a typical deposition experiment, Ag(tfac)(P(OEt)3) produced very pure silver films under relatively mild conditions (170 °C) without any appreciable amount of fluorine, oxygen and phosphorus impurities. These films could easily be converted to Ag2Se by selenium vapor deposition .

Occupational exposure to elemental Hg has occrrrred because of accidents in chloralkali plants (Bluhm et al. 1992). However, there are other potential occupational exposures to elemental Hg. In additiorr, some Caribbean religiorrs use elemental Hg in religious ceremonies (Wendroff 1995). Children have been known to play with elemental Hg because of its fascinating physical properties (i.e., liquid silver), possibly... 

The elements that make up a compound are chemically combined to form a new substance with a unique set of properties. The element silver is a solid metal. The element bromine is a poisonous red liquid. Silver bromide, a compound of silver and bromine, is a crystalline solid that is used in photographic and print paper. Silver bromide has a unique set of physical and chemical properties and a fixed composition of 57.45 percent silver and 42.55 percent bromine. 

Mercury is a unique element. An extremely heavy metal, it is the only metallic element that exists in liquid form at room temperature. This silvery white metal is a good conductor of electricity, but it is a poor conductor of heat, which is unusual for metals. Scientists have shown that mercury has been known to humanity for thousands of years. People in ancient China knew of the metal, and samples of it have been found in Egyptian tombs dating back to 1500 b.c. While its name comes from the planet Mercury, its chemical symbol, Hg, comes from the Latin word hydragyrum, which means liquid silver. Mercury s primary ore is cinnabar, which is also known as vermillion. This ore, found chiefly in Spain and Italy, contains an abundance of mercury sulfide compounds. Mercury is extracted from cinnabar by heating the ore and then condensing the resulting vapor.

The symbol Hg is derived from hydrargyrum (Latin) meaning liquid silver . The major source of mercury is cinnabar (HgS), from which the metal is extracted by roasting in air (equation 22.6).
