You should note that the melting point of mercury is -38.83°C, while the boiling point is at 356.7°C. Then, that means that there is no latent heat involved here. We only compute for the sensible heat.

ΔH = mCpΔT
The Cp of mercury is 0.14 J/g·°C
Thus,
ΔH = (411 g)(0.14 J/g·°C)(88 - 12°C)
ΔH = 4,373.04 J
