Question

What properties do iron and mercury have?

Answer 1

Answer:

For Mercury,

It is the only metal which is liquid at room temperatures.

There is one more metal which have similar properties like mercury but actually it is partially liquid at room temperatures.The metal is Cadimuim

For Iron,

Iron is the only metal which have the magnetic Properties and can generate magnetism.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

iron

1 it is metal and solid in state

2 Iron is a shiny, bright white metal that is soft, malleable, ductile and strong

3  Its surface is usually discolored by corrosion, since it combines readily with the oxygen of the air in the presence of moisture.

4 Iron has atomic number 26, atomic weight 55.85, and stable isotopes 54 (5.9%), 56 (91.6%), 57 (2.2%) and 58 (0.33%

.5  It is in the center of the periodic table, in the region of "transition metals" where a d-shell of electrons is being filled.

mercury  

1 it is also a metal but liquid in state

2 The element's atomic mass is 200.59 grams per mole and its specific gravity is 13.5 times that of water

3 Mercury has a melting point of -38.9oC, a boiling point of 356.7oC, and is the only metal to remain in liquid form at room temperature.

4 . Mercury has a relatively high vapour pressure and the highest volatility of any metal, vapourizing to become a colourless, odourless gas.

5  The metal is a fair conductor of electricity, but a poor conductor of heat.
