How to calculate the Static head/pressure of vessel that contains water and mercury?

Thanks for any help.
 
I do not think it is possible with just the information you provided. What are the %?

Just sum the static head from each component.
 

JStephen, Pls shows me the calculation formula.

Many thanks

 
Simply multiply the vertical column head

suppose in feet for each(water& mercury)with respective component's gravity(suppose in pounds force per ft3)

this will lead us to static pressure exerted by that column's part in pounds force per ft2.

Hope its helpful!

Best Regards
