The price of mercury fluctuates, as any material would. The United States Geological Survey (USGS) supplies the cost of mercury, per flask (~76 lbs. of mercury) up until 1998, when the cost per flask was $139.84. http://minerals.usgs.gov/minerals/pubs/commodity/mercury/430798.pdf A recent testimony delivered to the Subcommittee on Environment and Hazardous Materials of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce stated the global price of mercury is currently $8 per pound. http://energycommerce.house.gov/cmte_mtgs/110-ehm-hrg.062207.lawrence-testimony.pdf
The price of Mercury can vary, but generally, one ounce of mercury can cost around $3 to $5. However, it is not recommended to purchase or handle mercury without proper training and safety precautions due to its toxic properties.
The price of mercury varies. The cost of a gram of mercury is a few bucks. Same with an ounce. A few bucks. It's a few more bucks per pound or per kilogram. You hate that answer. Here's why it is posted that way. Mercury, that amazing liquid metal, is available in different quantities and different purities. The less you buy, the more it costs per unit weight. The more pure it is, the more it costs per unit weight. Mercury is sold commercially (and is almost always quoted in spot metal guides) as "X" amount of dollars per flask. The flask, the standard industrial unit in which the metal is available, weighs 76 pounds (about 34.5 kg). The current price of a 76 pound flask can be discovered by using the link below. The "cleanest" mercury is generally called reagent grade, and is available in smaller quantities at a fair cost. Much of the cost of mercury is not based on the metal and its availability; it's actually a "common" metal and can be had in large quantities. It is the "controls" that come on this highly toxic and dangerous material. Sales in industrialized countries are "tracked" in one form or another. The U.S. has strict controls. Mexico, Brazil, Viet Nam and China (industrialized countries without a lot of the "tracking" and "accountability" that America requires) have tons of the stuff availiable at low cost. Many tons are sitting around in Europe awaiting a buyer who will assume the stewardship of this dangerous material. There are few distributors who sell mercury (with fewer each year), and you're not going to be walking in off the street and buying it. It doesn't work that way. Use the link below and you'll find that spot metal price. If you are considering any "experiments" with this material, do all your homework. And please ask a science teacher (preferably a chemistry teacher) for information. Please. You've been warned. Mercury is a "curiosity" in its liquid form. But it can become airborne with little "motivation" as it is already a liquid. The toxic effects of mercury present in nurological symptoms. And it is a cumulative poison in that it "builds up" in the body because it takes a "long time" for the metabolic system to get rid of it. Be smart about this one. Please. Thanks. (Were you warned about the toxic nature of mercury? Yeah. And was it suggested you do sufficient research and ask a science teacher about this stuff? Mmmhmm. Good. Thanks again. Really.)
You can buy it from united nuclear for $45.
Pure mercury costs approximately $10 per oz. This yields a very small volume of mercury due to its very high density.
