What is the meaning of OH in chemistry?
The chemical group, ion, or radical OH that consists of one atom of hydrogen and one of oxygen and is neutral or negatively charged.
Hg2(CN)2 + 2OH- ----> 2HgO(s) + 2HCN
adding OH- to the mercury(l) cyanide will cause the formation of the solid HgO.
therefore increasing pH will increase the solubility of the Hg2(CN)2 by shifting equilibrium to right side.

A: Trial 1, because the average rate of the reaction is lower.
The rate of reaction is the speed with which reactants are converted into products. It is also the rate at which reactants disappear and products appear. The higher the rate of reaction, the greater the amount of product formed in a reaction.
If we look at the graph, we will realize that trial 1 produces a lesser amount of product than trial 2. This implies that the average rate of the reaction in trial 1 is lower than in trial 2.
Lower average rate of reaction implies lower concentration of the reactants since the rate of reaction depends on the concentration of reactants.
Hence trial 1 has a lower concentration of reactants because the average rate of the reaction is lower.
