The gravity of the Sun has slowed the rotation of Mercury, so it takes almost 59 Earth days to spin once on its axis (58.646 days).
At the same time, the relatively brief orbital period (Mercury year) is only 88 days long, even further reducing the apparent motion of the Sun as seen from the planet. A "solar day" (sunrise to sunrise) on Mercury lasts 176 Earth days, or twice as long as its year!
Roughly 29 days on earth is equal to one day on the moon.
One day on Mercury is equal to about 59 Earth days.

The length of day on Mercury is 58.646 Earth days. That's the rotation time, which is the sidereal day, but there's also the solar day. The solar day on Mercury is 176 Earth days.
No, one Mercury day is equal to 58.6 Earth days
One day on Mercury is equal to 1407.6 Earth hours.
It is approx 4223 Earth-hours = 176 Earth-days long.
Roughly 29 days on earth is equal to one day on the moon.

The length of each planet's days are different because they rotate at different speeds. A day on Mercury is equal to 58.5 days on Earth. A day on Mars takes 24 hours and 39 minutes on Earth. A day on Venus is 243 Earth days and a day on Jupiter is equal to 9.9 Earth hours.
