The atmosphere of Mercury is so weak the sky has very little color. It would be dark outside during both daytime and nighttime. (The sun would appear about 3 times larger than it would here on Earth.)
Nothing because you would probably be dead
you would see dust around the place!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mercury has no atmosphere, so it does not look like anything.

The acceleration of gravity on Mercury's surface, and therefore the weight of anyobject located there, is 37.7% of its value on the surface of the Earth. It followslogically that a person whose body weighs 100 pounds on the Earth's surfacewould weigh 37pounds 11.2ounces on the surface of Mercury just before it beganto vaporize in the bright sunshine there.
If you weigh 100lbs on Earth, you would weigh 37.8lbs on Mercury.
It is quite similar to that of our moons landscape. It has craters, boulders and rocks on the surface. There is no atmosphere, so no wind or rain to erode the craters away over time. The sky would be black rather than blue, while the sun would appear much larger in size.
If you are referring to mass, then the percentage would be: Mercury = 0.330x1024kg Earth = 5.97 x1024kg Percentage = mercury/earth = 0.330x1024kg/5.97 x1024kg *100 = 5.5% If you are referring to diameter, the percentage would be: Mercury = 4879km Earth = 12,756km Percentage = mercury/earth = 4879km/12,756km *100 = 38.2%
it would be really hot
They would float on the surface of the Mercury but they wouldn't react with the Mercury.
there would be nothing, less than mercury, because mercury's atmosphere is a foot off of its surface.
Mercury is a merky colour. If you were to think of a paint palette you would mix flourescent magenta and muddy brown.

To get the surface area, someone had to multiply length times width. So what we would need to do is take our surface area, divide by our height, which is our width, and get our length. So if SA stood for surface area, and h stood for height, we'd take SA/h to get the length.
If you weigh 100lbs on Earth, you would weigh 37.8lbs on Mercury.
The reason we consider the surface area of the entire mass of mercury, including the part of the surface that is in contact with the glass, is because mercury does not adhere at all to glass. So the surface tension of the mercury acts over its entire surface area, including where it is in contact with the glass. If instead of glass, the tube were made out of copper, the situation would be very different. Mercury aggressively adheres to copper. So in a copper tube, the level of mercury at the center of the tube will be lower rather than higher than at the edges

Lead and several other substances would melt on the surfaces of Mercury and Venus. Mercury's mean surface temperature: 167oC (333oF) Venus' mean surface temperature: 464oC (867oF)

Silicon is a silvery grey material, with a conchoidal fracture. It is stable and I have a specimen on my shelf. It is used in the solid form in the refining of Aluminum. As with any material, the colour of the surface is a matter of subtractive colour. A red surface or a green surface absorbs all colours except red, and green respectively. A silvery grey surface would be given by a material with a 'neutral density colour' and a highly reflective surface.
