KnowraMercury (element)Linked fromLinked fromThe 22 pages that link to Mercury (element), each with the reason it gives.All 22Broader topic 7Related 9Compared with 6SuperconductivityBroader topic: Mercury was the material in which superconductivity was first observed.Relativistic chemistryBroader topic: Relativistic stabilization of its 6s electrons contributes to weak metallic bonding and its low melting point.Relativistic effectBroader topic: Relativistic stabilization of its filled 6s shell weakens metallic bonding and contributes to its low melting point.Enthalpy of vaporizationBroader topic: Its liquid-to-gas transition illustrates vaporization enthalpy in a metal rather than a molecular liquid.Heike Kamerlingh OnnesBroader topic: Onnes observed its electrical resistance vanish when it was cooled below about 4.2 kelvins.Type-I superconductorBroader topic: It was the first material in which superconductivity was discovered and is type I.Group 12 elementBroader topic: Mercury’s liquid state and strong relativistic effects make it the group’s most conspicuous exception.
