Find the
density of
mercury
​

Answer 1

Answer:

The density of metal, mercury, is 13.546 gm/cm^3 or, 13,546 kg/m^3. ... That is, mercury is about 13.5 times heavier than water and hence a specific gravity of 13.546. Interestingly, this density is one of the reasons why we use mercury in the barometers (devices used for measuring pressure) and not water.
