Step-by-step explanation:

Advantages

It is a good conductor of heat and hence, can measure even high temperatures.

It gives results quickly – has a fast response time.

It expands linearly and less than alcohol and any other liquid.

It is more durable than alcohol thermometer because mercury does not evaporate easily.
