According to the NASA website, the magnetic field on Mercury has the following characteristics:
Dipole field strength: 0.0033 gauss-Rh3
Dipole tilt to rotational axis: 169 degrees
Longitude of tilt: 285 degrees (from Mercury I flyby)
115 degrees (from Mercury III flyby)
(whereby Rh denotes Mercurian radii, 2,439 km)
It is 1/100th as strong as ours, but does deflect the solar wind to some degree
That's easy because it doesn't. Mercury's magnetic field is only about 1% that of Earth.
You might, but that would be wrong! Mercury has a strong magnetic field.
Mercury at normal temperature and pressure is a liquid and will not hold a magnetic field - so it cannot be magnetized.
Yes. It has a modest magnetic field that is approximately aligned with the planet's axis of rotation. The field is a planetary dipole, and it is though to be generated in a manner similar to the way the earth is though to generate its magnetic field - dynamo action at or around the core. The strength of the field has been estimated as approximately 1% of Earth's. (see link)
Mercury :) hope I helped!!
Mercury's magnetic field was created in 1974-04.

upcoming magnetic reversal
Neptune, Uranus, Saturn, Jupiter, and Earth all have magnetic fields. Mercury has a very weak magnetic field.

there is no benefeit. its a myth.

it affects the other planets and its rotation
Mercury :) hope I helped!!
Mercury has a significant magnetic field.
