Mercury enters the oceans from:
Once in the ocean it becomes methylated in biological processes in the sediments and is bioaccumulated in the food chain until it accumulates in top predators (e.g. tuna) where it can reach unhealthy levels.
The average Hg concentration in seawater is 0.019 ug/L (Britush coastal waters)
If mercury is released into the ocean the fishes and other aquatic animals misundestanding it as food and when they eat it they die as mercury is highly poisonous.When eat these fishes we in turn eat the mercuryn which is harmful to the body.This is what happened in Japan a few years ago and the disease is called the Minimata disease.
The compound name of Hg2SO4 is mercury(I) sulfate.
The compound name for Hg2F3 is mercury(II) fluoride.
The word equation for the breakdown of solid mercury(II) oxide when heated is: Mercury(II) oxide --> Mercury + Oxygen.
First take the mercury oxide and heat it so that it decomposes completely. This will drive off the oxygen gas and leave you with elemental mercury. Record the exact mass of the mercury that you have left at the end of the reaction. Divide this mass of mercury by the original mass of your mercury oxide sample and multiply by 100. This will be the percent mercury by mass in your original sample.
Because it is poisonous.

Soft landings were made in the Pacific Ocean when Mercury, Gemini and Apollo spacecraft returned home. The term "splashdown" was applied to the end of the ride. Surf the link to our friends at Wikipedia and check out the maps while snagging a few particulars.

Venus and Mercury, Venus is hotter though
Tilapia is considered a low mercury risk. Larger, older, ocean run fish like shark, swordfish and king mackerel generally contain higher levels of mercury and should be avoided by pregnant women.

In some places in the world, mercury is pumped into the ocean as a byproduct of industry. This mercury is then consumed by fish, poisoning the fish. The fish are caught by fishermen and consumed by people, creating a wide range of problems due to the toxic nature of mercury.
Stingrays go down to the mercury bottom of the river or ocean and will lay there and die!
There aren't oceans on mercery! So I guess the answer is 0%
All of the Mercury missions ended (as did all missions prior to the Shuttle Program) via capsule splashdown and recovery by a Navy carrier in the Pacific Ocean.

Pressure in a fluid at a certain depth H is proportional to the density of the fluid. Since Mercury has a much higher density then water it will exert a much larger pressure at the same depth.
