Description : How many grams per cubic meter density of Mercury ?
Last Answer : The density of Mercury is the second highest among the densities of the solar system , 5.43 g / cm6; Which is slightly less than the earth.
Description : What is the density of mercury ?
Last Answer : Mercury density 13.6 gm / cc
Description : In a barometer, mercury is preferred over water because (a) mercury is a good conductor of heat (b) mercury is shining and therefore its level can be read easily (c) mercury is available in pure form (d) mercury has high density and low vapour pressure
Last Answer : Ans:(d)
Description : A steel ball floats on mercury because (a) mercury does not allow any metallic ball to sink in it (b) mercury is also a metal in the liquid form (c) the density of mercury is higher than that of steel (d) a steel ball can be made to float on any liquid by suitable adjustment
Last Answer : Ans:(c)
Description : On a clean glass plate a drop of water spreads to form a thin layer whereas a drop of mercury remains almost spherical because (a) Mercury is a metal (b) The density of mercury is greater ... is greater than its adhesion with glass (d) The cohesion of water is greater than its adhesion with glass
Description : Mercury is commonly used as a thermometric fluid rather than water because (1) specific heat of mercury is less than water (2) specific heat of mercury is more than water (3) mercury has greater visibility than water (4) density of mercury is more than the water
Last Answer : (3) mercury has greater visibility than water Explanation: One special kind of mercury-inglass thermometer, called a maximum thermometer, works by having a constriction in the neck close to the bulb.
Description : On a clean glass plate a drop of water spreads to form a thin layer whereas a drop of mercury remains almost spherical because (1) Mercury is a metal (2) Density of mercury is greater than that ... is greater than its adhesion with glass (4) Cohesion of water is greater than its adhesion with glass
Last Answer : (3) Cohesion of mercury is greater than its adhesion with glass Explanation: When liquid is placed on a smooth surface like glass plate, the relative strengths of the cohesive and adhesive forces acting on ... and a surface are stronger, they will pull the liquid down, causing it to wet the surface.
Description : Which of the following liquids has the least density? (1) Fresh water (2) Salt water (3) Petrol (4) Mercury
Last Answer : (3) Petrol Explanation: Gasoline or petrol is a transparent, petroleum-derived liquid that is used primarily as a fuel in internal Combustion engines. It consists mostly of organic compounds obtained by the fractional distillation of petroleum, enhanced with a variety of additives.
Description : Mercury is an ideal barometric fluid mainly due to its (A) High density (B) Low compressibility (C) Low capillary action (D) Very low vapor pressure
Last Answer : (D) Very low vapor pressure

Description : Density in the solid state is slightly less than that in its liquid state, in case of (A) Carbon dioxide (B) Water (C) Mercury (D) None of these
Last Answer : (B) Water
Description : Spherical shape of mercury droplets is due to its (A) High viscosity (B) Low surface tension (C) High density (D) High surface tension
Last Answer : Option D
Last Answer : Cohesion of mercury is greater than its adhesion with glass
Description : Which of the following liquids has the least density ? (1) Fresh water (2) Salt water (3) Petrol (4) Mercury
