Facts About Mercury the Planet

• Mercury is composed of an iron core which is at least partially molten. That is surrounded by a mantle, which is rocky, and a crust.

• The surface of Mercury resembles Earth’s moon because it has a layer of silicates which are tiny particles.

• There is no gravity to slow down meteoroids and no friction to burn them up, so the surface of Mercury is pocketed by craters.

• The largest crater on Mercury is called Caloris Basin and is 800 miles in diameter.

• There is ice made of water at Mercury’s poles in deep craters.

• Mercury has no moons or rings.

Facts About Mercury As a Metal

• Its symbol is Hg, from the Latin hydrargyrum, meaning liquid silver.

• Its boiling point is over 356 degrees Celsius, and it freezes at around minus 38 degrees Celsius

.

• It does not conduct heat very well, but is a fairly good conductor of electricity.

• It has high surface tension and breaks up when poured or spilled onto a flat area, forming small beads which move around quickly.

• It is used in thermometers because its expansion when heated is fairly constant, and in barometers because of its density.

• It can be easily absorbed into your body through the skin, lungs, or by ingesting it
