Why is a mortal sin when it is not one of the ten commandments?

Actually it is when you look at the 10 commandments. An example would be murder. It is a sin to murder and it is a mortal sin. What we know as the 10 commandments is only a fraction of what was given to Moses. The total number of commandments is over 600, but the Catholic Church watered it down to 10 in the Middle Ages.

How does Catholicism relate to Judaism?
Catholicism is Judaism fulfilled: All of the original Catholics were Jews who recognized Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ, as their promised Messiah. All of the 613 commandments in the Pentateuch are categorized as either moral, ceremonial, or civil. This is how those commandments from Judaism relate to Catholicism. The moral commandments: for instance, the Ten Commandments - all of the moral commandments are binding on all men at all time in all circumstances. The ceremonial commandments: for instance, you shall not boil a kid in its mother's milk, the Passover, etc. These commandments were all meant to foreshadow the Messiah. It is a mortal sin for a Christian to observe any of the ceremonial commandments as it would saying that you didn't believe the Messiah had arrived. The civil commandments (St. Thomas refers to this as the judicial commandments) these may or may not be valid depending on your local government. It is not a sin to pass one of these commandments and enforce it, examples from the Pentateuch would be practically the entire 21st chapter of Exodus.
