>>10 hours / small planet= quicker rotation
This is flase. The size of the planet does not have much to do with its rotation rate, particularely in a planet made of silicate. Stars in general change their rotation rate with time and people believe it may be related with generation of magnetic field for example.
The planet Mercury rotates very slowly. While Earth has a solar day OS 24h Mercury's solar day is about 176 Earth days. It takes Mercury around six months to give a full turn over its own axis.
Mercury has the longest day-night cycle among the planets in our solar system. A day on Mercury is about 176 Earth days long, followed by an equally long night.
It's Mercury or Venus depending on whichthe definition of "day "you mean.
Mercury takes about 88 Earth days to complete one revolution around the Sun.
Mercury's "sidereal day" is about 59 Earth days long and its year is about 88 Earth days long. Venus has a "solar day" of about 117 Earth days and a year of about 225 Earth days.
Venus or Mercury, depending on the definition of "day" used. It takes Venus 243 Earth days to spin on its axis relative to the background stars (a "sidereal day"). It takes Venus 224.7 Earth days to orbit the Sun (its year). However, a "solar day" is only 116.75 Earth days long due to the combination of rotation time, orbit time and spin direction. (Venus spins in the other direction to Earth and most other planets.)Mercury has a "sidereal day" of about 58.6 Earth days and a year of about 88 Earth days.
one day on mercury is approximetly 10 secends. one year on mercury is 80 days.
88 Earth Days
Mercury has very very long days. Each day on Mercury last as long as 58 hours, 15 hours on earth.

Mercury has the longest day-night cycle among the planets in our solar system. A day on Mercury is about 176 Earth days long, followed by an equally long night.
one day on Mercury is approximetly 10 secends. one year on mercury is 80 days.
58.6 Earth days
On Mercury, one day there is equal to 58.65 days here.
Exactly one Mercury day.
65 days
It's Mercury or Venus depending on whichthe definition of "day "you mean.
one whole day of the earth day
