Cr has five unpaired d-electrons. Hence metallic bonds are strong. In Hg, there is absence of unpaired electrons and size is larger.

Chromium has unpaired electrons which result in strong metallic bonding which results in it being a hard solid and the absence of unpaired electrons in Hg result in it being a liquid.
