OPTIONS 1 & 2
The state which a person lives in has nothing to do with the experiment, although it would most likely make it easier to observe. Wheter they develop heart disease or not is the results of the experiment.
In order to get HgO you would need 2Hg+1O2=2HgO. Since oxygen is diatomic you need two when it stands alone causing you to need two mercuries to balance out the reactants and the product I hope this helps
Answer: a) 
acid : hydronium ion
base : methoxide ion
conjugate acid : methanol
conjugate base: water
b) 
acid : hydrogen chloride
base : ethoxide ion
conjugate acid : ethanol
conjugate base: chloride ion
c) 
acid : methanol
base : amide ion
conjugate acid : ammonia
conjugate base: methoxide ion
Explanation:
According to the Bronsted-Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which looses donates protons and thus forming conjugate base and a base is defined as a substance which accepts protons and thus forming conjugate acid.
The species accepting a proton is considered as a base and after accepting a proton, it forms a conjugate acid.
The species losing a proton is considered as an acid and after loosing a proton, it forms a conjugate base
For the given chemical equation:
a) 
acid : hydronium ion
base : methoxide ion
conjugate acid : methanol
conjugate base: water
b) 
acid : hydrogen chloride
base : ethoxide ion
conjugate acid : ethanol
conjugate base: chloride ion
c) 
acid : methanol
base : amide ion
conjugate acid : ammonia
conjugate base: methoxide ion
