The given volume is and the given density of Mercury is . Not everything you need! Something needs to be known or given about the container, maybe the mass when empty? Did you omit something from the description?

Step 1. Mass = Density * Volume = 13.6 * 50 = 680 grams = 0.68 kilograms. Step 2. Weight = Mass * Gravity_acceleration = 0.68 kg * 9.81 = 6.6708 Newtons. ANSWER
