Velocity of sound measurements at 10 MHz in near-critical liquid and vapor mercury up to supercritical temperatures and pressures of 1900 K and 1800 bars, respectively, demonstrate the existence of a wetting transition on the walls of molybdenum and niobium cells at TW~=1250 K, together with an associated first-order prewetting line in the dense mercury vapor that terminates at a prewetting critical point \(Tc,pre,pc,pre\)>~\(1860 K, 1830 bars\) lying above the bulk mercury critical point at \(Tc,pc\) = \(1764 K, 1670 bars\).
