Yes, water (ice) has been found on Mercury. To read more on NASA's findings, check out the related link below.

The water on the planet Mercury exists as ice, at the bottom of craters near the poles. These places are in permanent shadow, so the Sun can't heat them.

There is no LIQUID WATER on Mercury: the lack of an atmosphere, the solar wind, and the vast surface temperature differences prevent the formation of oceans as on Earth.
The surface temperature of Mercury is too hot for water to exist in a liquid state. but there is water in its solide state near the poles. this is due to the fact that even though mercury is very close to the sun mercury still is pretty cold near the poles

Which will sink in mercury lead ice or hydrogen and why?

To answer this question you need to know the densities of the substances Mercury = 13.534 g/cm3 Lead = 11.34 g/cm3 ice = 0.9167 g/cm3 Hydrogen = (which is a gas) = 0.00008988 g/cm3 The rule is that anything that is of lesser density will float in anything that has a greater density. Thus, none of these will sink in mercury.
