One Answer Below
Anyone can contribute an answer, even non-tutors.
why is it D not C
Mercury is, in fact, a metal which conducts electricity just like other metals.
they did not specify whether the solution is aqueous or molten...
Imagine being served a “Milo drink” and then you suddenly realise that the Milo concentration is too high as you drink it.
Which is why usually solutions are dilute.
Concentrated aqueous = concentrated solution.
Dilute (...) or simply (....) solution = dilute solution.
Recall that preferential discharge of halide ions (iodide easiest, then bromide, then chloride) over hydroxide occurs for concentrated aqueous solutions, at the anode (positive electrode).
Solutions refer to a solute such as a salt, dissolved in water.
for example Pb and Fe electrodes, which one will be the postive and negative terminal
Iron becomes oxidised to iron(II) ions. Electrons loss by iron move through the external circuit (conducting wire) to the Pb electrode (positive electrode).

does that mean all covalent sustances will not conduct electricity whether in liquid or molten state except for HCl, SO2 and NH3
yes all covalent compounds/molecules do not conduct electricity
those gases you mentioned conduct electricity in aqueous state, not liquid, not molten. So long your substance is soluble and forms ions, the solution will be able to conduct electricity
