Question

Would a reaction take place when the following substances are mixed together? (i would say no because I don't think Hg can displace Al..)

Hg (s) + AlBr3 (aq)

Answer 1

Aluminum is far more reactive than mecury, so this one won't go anywhere. I don't know about at other temperatures and pressures, however.

Answer 2

It would not take place first of all because if you are right about the states of these substances, Hg(s) (mercury in solid state would require to be below -38°F at 1 atm of pressure), and you could not mix that with the aqueous solution of AlBr3
