Saran999 288 Report post Posted October 24, 2013 A sponge is a sponge because its porous material is able to absorb liquid of any kind. But what about liquid metal? Can a sponge actually absorb the heavy quicksilver material known as mercury? Not at all. At best, a little bit of mercury goop gets caught on top of the sponge and slides away like its T-1000 shaping itself back together. https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=PWCx3faQSfQ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
