curprev 18:3818:38, 8 June 2021 96.230.194.8 talk 9,755 bytes −4 →Toxicity: Fixed a common grammatical error. Poisonous is when it can directly kill when eaten or consumed (not including choking), but mercury can only be considered poisonous when it's a salt. Mercury is very toxic though. The deadliest part about pure mercury is the vapor that has no smell and can only be seen in if light. That vapor can condence in your lungs and do all sorts of stuff to you. undo Tags: Mobile edit Mobile web edit

curprev 03:5803:58, 19 April 2020 Arithmetix talk contribs 9,596 bytes +17 →Description: The description of the mercury switch was incorrect. Air, which contains oxygen, is not used in mercury switches because a scum of non-conductive mercuric oxide forms on the surface of the mercury, impairing the switch. Hydrogen is used instead. undo Tags: Mobile edit Mobile app edit Android app edit
