It takes about 59 Earth days for Mercury to spin once on its axis. This slow rotation combined with its fast orbital speed around the Sun results in long days and short years on the planet.
One rotational period is about 2 Mercury years or 176 earth days
It take mercury approximately 17hours and 57minutes to make one rotation.

How long does it take for mercury to fully spin around?
It takes Mercury about 59 Earth days to complete one full rotation on its axis. This means that a day on Mercury (one full rotation) is equivalent to 59 Earth days.
What is one interesting feature of mercury?
Because of the periods of Mercury's orbit and spin, a year (complete orbit around the sun) on Mercury is about 88 Earth days long, while a day (time for the Sun to appear in the same place in the sky) is twice that length, at about 176 Earth days long.
How long does it take mercury to spin around its axis and how many earth days is that?
Mercury takes about 59 Earth days to complete one full rotation on its axis. This means that one day on Mercury is equivalent to approximately 59 Earth days.
Is Mercury perfectly round?
Mercury is definitely not perfectly round. All of our photos of Mercury show that it's covered in craters which cause ridges to form all over the planet. This means that it's not perfectly round.
How much time does mercury take to complete 1 spin?
Mercury takes about 58.6 Earth days to complete one rotation on its axis. This is known as a "solar day" on Mercury.
