The scosity and other one is dynamic viscosity.

kinematic viscosity is the dynamic viscosity divided by his dense. and mercury has high denser than water. therefor kinematic viscosity of mercury is less than water. thats why if u fall down mercury from glass it is speedy falls down than water.

in mercury molecules are more cohesion than water molecules however water molecules have hydrogen bond while mercury have metallic bond. and metallic bond is strong than hydrogen bond. so mercury molecules resist force more than water molecules. thats why dynamic viscosity of mercury is greater than water.

Explanation:

water molecule have hydrogen bond while mercury have metallic bond .Metallic bond is strong than hydrogen bond, that's why mercury is more viscious than water.
