mercury is metal and metals general are not electrolytes, and they all conduct electricity, in solid or liquid form. That is because of their atomic structure; electrons that are not free to move around the material.
Electrolytes conduct electricity because positive and negative chemical ions are
free to move, not the individual electron.

An electrolyte is a substance which conducts electricity in the form of ions. Mercury conducts electricity through its electrons, so it is not an electrolyte.
