Lead Amalgam
Prepared by rubbing lead filings with mercury in a mortar or by pouring molten lead into mercury. Has no definite composition. Possesses a brilliant white color and remains liquid with as much as 33% of lead. A 50:50 lead-mercury amalgam can be crystallized, and a piece of clean lead plunged into this will be found to be covered with crystals of this amalgam when withdrawn.
