Mercury Mercury is an element and a metal that is found in air, water, and soil. It exists in three forms that have different properties, usage, and toxicity. The three forms are called elemental (or metallic) mercury, inorganic mercury compounds, and organic mercury compounds. Elemental mercury is liquid at room temperature.
Elemental mercury does cause damage by blocking blood vessels. Mercury's zero oxidation state Hg 0 exists as vapor or as liquid metal, its mercurous state Hg + exists as inorganic salts, and its mercuric state Hg 2+ may form either inorganic salts or organomercury compounds; the three groups vary in effects.ercury poisoning can be prevented (or minimized) by eliminating or reducing exposure to mercury and mercury compounds. To that end, many governments and private groups have made efforts to regulate heavily the use of mercury, or to issue advisories about its use.
