Explain your chosen metal in a blog.
My metal (mercury) symbol is Hg and is named after the Roman god Mercury, as well as the planet Mercury. Mercury was used for tombs by Egyptians, ointments by the Greeks, and cosmetics by the Romans, which was a bad thing because it would deform faces. But now a days, mercury is usually used in thermometers, barometers, and dental amalgams.
