Mercury is liquid at room temperature so it is already "melted"
Of course! Mercury is the stuff in thermometers, which (as you know) is liquid. If you've ever broken a thermometer you would have seen the mercury form droplets on the ground (I don't recommend you try this though, it is harmful).
Mercury's melting point is in fact -40C. What this means is that any temperature higher than 40-below-freezing is hot enough for mercury to melt.
Yes, Mercury has a low melting point of -38.83 degrees Celsius, which is relatively low compared to other metals. Its low melting point allows it to remain in liquid form at room temperature.

Which solid will melt before mercury boils?
Ice will melt before mercury boils. Ice melts at 0 degrees Celsius while mercury boils at 356.7 degrees Celsius.
Can the planet mercury melt mercury?
yes because the planet Mercury is the second hottest planet in the solar system[after Venus] .Comment: It's not too difficult to melt mercury. The element mercury isliquid at room temperature on Earth, or anywhere else if it gets warmerthan about negative 38 degrees.
What happens if you go on mercury?
You will die!
What temperature is it when you melt metal?
Different metals melt at different temperatures, from -39 deg C (mercury) to 3414 deg C (tungsten).
Does Mercury melt lead?
Yes. The melting point of lead is 327.46 °C. The temperature of lava is definitely greater than that. hence it can melt lead.
Are light bulbs that contain Mercury dangerous in any way?
yes they are dangerous because mercury will melt easily
Does planet Mercury melted?
Mercury only takes 88 days to go around the sun but if it is closest to the Sun it could melt a little bit. Scientists believe that Mercury in future will melt and will die. I don't know. People will see Mercury through telescopes but it is nearly smaller then Pluto!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO MERCURY DOES MELT!!!!!!!!!!
Which solid will melt before mercury boils?
Ice will melt before mercury boils. Ice melts at 0 degrees Celsius while mercury boils at 356.7 degrees Celsius.
Is there any sattellites in mercury?
no the sattellites would melt

Why Mercury the one of the planets did not melt?
Mercury is the innermost planet, closest to the sun. The surface temperature is high in places, but not nearly high enough to melt the rock that it's made out of.
How does the planet Mercury feel?
Hot. Mercury is very close to the Sun; the sun-side temperatures on Mercury will melt most metals.
What happens if you go on mercury?
You will die!
What can melt mercury as an element in the periodic table?
Mercury has a melting point of 234.32 K, or-37.89F or -38.3 C
Does electrocution really melt silver?
If enough electrical energy is put into a metal, it can easily melt that metal.
Would you use alcohol or mercury to measure temperature in north pole?
I say mercury Cause alcohol will melt faster
