Re no.=ro.v.d/m. Here, density is directly proportional to viscosity
Mercury 13.6> water 1
Mercury is more viscous than water

If we are writing viscosity that means we are asking about Dynamic viscosity that which mercury have higher viscosity than Water.
For your question you should change answer
