Is mercury the closest planet to earth?

It can be sometimes, but Venus can be closer than Mercury ever can; Mercury is only the closest planet to Earth when Venus is on the opposite side of the Sun from Mercury and Earth, and maybe not even then (depending on exactly where Mars is).


What planet takes 28 days to go round the earth?

No planet goes around the Earth. The Moon, Earth's satellite orbits around the Earth, once ever 27 days and 7 hours.


Did Mars ever crash on earth?

No, firstly because neither planet really existed at that time (they were barely forming from the disc of debris orbiting the sun - protoplanets) and also Mars has always been right about where it is now, in orbit around the Sun. If Mars had collided with the Earth long ago, there is no force in nature that could have put it into the orbit it now has. But 4 billion years ago, there were probably dozens of other "baby planets" wandering around the solar system, interacting via gravity with each other. Back then , collisions were probably relatively common. Something - probably not quite as big as Mars, but perhaps close - probably DID collide with the proto-Earth, smashing an enormous chunk out of it. The debris from the collision, both from Earth and from that "other planet", then coalesced to form the Moon.

If the Earth came into orbit of another bigger planet would the Earth the be a moon?

yes, if the earth was in orbit around another planet, it would be a moon. However, it wouldn't "come into" orbit around another planet, that's pretty much impossible. a trajectory change like that would kill all life on earth anyway, so it's not something humans will ever witness.
