Mercury consists of approximately 70% metallic and 30% silicate material.
Mercury is the planet: there is no raw (or ripe) planet associated with it!
Mercury is a very hot planet. Mercury is the closest planet to the sun.
No, the planet Mercury is just called Mercury. The element Mercury (Hg) is a chemical element and has nothing to do with the naming of the planet Mercury.
Mercury is called the "iron planet" because it has a high concentration of iron in its core. Scientists believe that the planet formed from the heavy elements, including iron, that were present in the early solar system. The iron content gives Mercury a high density and makes it similar to Earth's core in composition.
Mercury is the closest planet to the sun
The planet Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun. It shares its name with a metallic element, one of the only two elements that are liquid at room temperature.
The names of the planet and chemical elements are derived from the name of the Roman god Mercury.
Mercury from both the planet and the Roman god; Uranium is named after the planet Uranus and Plutonium after the (former) planet Pluto; Neptunium, after the planet Neptune. Tellurium, element 52, gets its name from the Latin "tellus" meaning Earth. Not planets, but element 2, Helium is named from the Greek helios, Sun, and Selenium from the Greek selene, Moon.
The planet Mercury is a rocky planet that contains most of the same elements as Earth. It does not have an appreciable atmosphere, except for a trace of ionized vapor consisting mostly of oxygen, sodium, and hydrogen.

Mercury is a planet.
Mercury has low abundance of elements compared to Earth, as it has a much thinner atmosphere and lower gravity which affects the retention of elements. It is mostly composed of iron and nickel, similar to Earth's core. Mercury's surface is also enriched in sulfur, calcium, and magnesium.
Mercury is not a dwarf planet. It is a planet.
Mercury is itself a planet - it did not come from a planet!

The symbols of the elements named after planets are: Lead (Pb) named after the planet Saturn Mercury (Hg) named after the planet Mercury Platinum (Pt) named after the dwarf planet Pluto Uranium (U) named after the planet Uranus Other elements also have symbols that may resemble planet symbols, but these are specifically named after planets.
