It does not rotate in one day it does three rotations about its axis for every two orbits. One orbit takes 87.969 Earth days. Which is 126675.36 minuits or 2111.256 hours.
Exactly one Mercury day.

Mercury. One Mercurial day is 176 Terran (Earth) days.
know one knows for sure it's said to change by the slightest every year but not much.
There are 1407.6 Earth hours during one full on Mercury. Thus, it will take approximately 59 Earth days for one day on Mercury.
Mercury rotates once in about 58.6 Earth days.
It orbits the sun but does not rotate like Earth. One side is always hot and one is aways cold.
One day on Mercury is equivalent to approximately 59 Earth days. Mercury rotates on its axis very slowly, which causes its day to be much longer than a day on Earth.
The Mercury Year (time to revolve around the Sun) is 3/2 the Mercury day (time to revolve once on its own axis relative to the distant stars) Mercury orbital period about 87,97 Earth days Sidereal day (relative to the stars) 58,7 earth days.
One rotation period in Mercury, also known as a day, is equivalent to about 59 Earth days. Mercury's slow rotation contributes to its extreme temperature differences between the day and night sides of the planet.
Mercury rotates counter-clockwise (west to east), completing one rotation in about 58.64 Earth days.
