Mercury has a unique rotation characterized by a 3:2 spin-orbit resonance, meaning it rotates on its axis three times for every two orbits around the Sun. This results in a very slow rotation period of about 59 Earth days, while its year lasts only about 88 Earth days. Consequently, a day on Mercury (from one sunrise to the next) is about 176 Earth days long, making its rotational dynamics quite unusual compared to other planets. Additionally, its axial tilt is minimal, which further influences its extreme temperature variations.
as it gets dissolved in aquaregia(HCl+HNO3),it shows a peculiar behaviour
Mercury has a oval rotation because of the suns gravity
Yes, Mercury does rotate about its own axis. However, its rotation is unique in that it is in a 3:2 spin-orbit resonance, meaning it rotates on its axis three times for every two orbits around the Sun.
In the time it takes Mercury to complete one rotation, Neptune rotates 87.37 times.
Mercury has a very slow rotation on its axis, taking about 59 Earth days to rotate once. This means that a day on Mercury is longer than a year on Mercury. Its rotation is also unique in that it is in a 3:2 spin-orbit resonance, resulting in strange patterns of movement.

The rotation period of Mercury is 58.65 days.
Mercury's rotation. What is the question ?
It takes its rotation 59 days

mercury's rotation period is 58.647 earth days. a rotation is when the planet turns around on its axis, like what the earth does once every day.
your are a nerd
Mercury's rotation length is 3333333333333333333.8 billion cm. ;-) no lies i checked with my younger sister Haymen. xx
