All those who answered alcohol are CORRECT!!
Mercury is silver, always, always. Any other color is alcohol dyed.
Not the drinking stuff (sorry) but a heavier, more poisonous alcohol.

sometimes its mercury, sometimes its alcohol. most thermometers use alchol now for safety reasons since mercury is poisonous.

That is called mercury, and it expands with heat and condenses with cold.
