The sidereal rotation period (e.g day) of Mercury is 58.646 days.
Mercury's orbital period (e.g Year) is 87.969 days.
The combination of this rotation (spinning) and its orbital motion is that the "solar day" on Mercury (sunrise to sunrise) would be about 176 Earth days, and the Sun would not appear to move at a constant rate across the Mercury sky.
