Mercury atomic weight

The atomic weight of mercury is high so that some selection rules will not be rigorously obeyed. There is one other prominent transition at 2537 A... 

The diffusion method depends on the fact that the velocity of a molecule is inversely proportional to the square root of its molecular weight. Slight separations were made years ago in the case of hydrochloric acid and of mercury but the results were disappointing on account of the very small yields. The isotopes of neon with atomic weights of 20 and 22 have been separated rather successfully by diffusion. Hydrogen and deuterium also have been separated by diffusion. 

If 177.1664 gm. of mercuric sulphide yield 152.745 gm. of mercury, what is the atomic weight of mercury ... 

Mercury s atomic number is 80 and its atomic weight is 200.59. It has a boiling point of 674°F (356.7°C) and a melting point of -38°F (-38.89°C). Mercury is stable (it does not react) in air and water, as well as in acids and alkalis. The surface tension of mercury is six times higher than that of water. Because of this, even when mercury is in liquid form, it does not wet the surfaces it contacts. 

Mercury (Hg, CAS Number 7439-97-6) is a naturally-occurring metal that has an atomic number of 80 and an atomic weight of 200.6. Many different organic and inorganic mercury compounds are found in nature because of mercury s ability to form covalent and ionic bonds with other chemicals. Mercury exists in three forms in three oxidation states (0, +1, +2) elemental mercury (Hg°), organic mercury (e.g., methyl mercury), and inorganic mercury (e.g..

More recently still, it has been found possible, not only to synthesise elements of atomic weight higher even than that of uranium, but to break down these elements or effect their fission , is it is now termed, into elements of only about half their own itomic weights (p. 318). It has now been fpund possible to convert mercury into gold — but the gold is radioactive, and the process is... 

The first of these tables gives the molar heat capacity at constant pressure of liquid and gaseous mercury as a function of temperature. To convert to specific heat in units of J/g K, divide these values by 200.59, the atomic weight of mercury.
