The most contemporary shapes of the binary phase diagrams of mercury with all elements are displayed in an integral form. Such presentation allows to follow changes of the phase diagram boundaries in the groups and periods of the periodic table of elements. Selection of the critically assessed solubilities of elements is given in a tabular form. Formation of intermetallic compounds, when two metals are introduced into mercury, is briefly characterized. Our knowledge on these fields of interest was considerably extended by the use of various electrochemical techniques. Diffusion coefficients of metals in mercury are mainly determined by electrochemical methods. An analysis of the diffusion data contributes with important informations about structure of simple amalgams; these conclusions are confirmed by other physico-chemical measurements. A liner dependence is observed between logarithms of the standard rate constants of discharging of aquo-ions on mercury electrode and the metal solubilities in mercury.
