Hello!

Density is defined as mass/volume

So if we have

Densitywater=1kg/1Liter=1kg/Liter

DensityMercury=13.6kg/1Liter=13.6kg/Liter

Therefore mercury is more dense than water, as more mass of Mercury can occupy the same amount of space or volume of Water.

Hope this helps. Any questions please feel free to ask. Thank you.
