Hg(OH)2, yes, it does exist. Although it must be synthsized as it deosn't exist naturally. Molecules has been isolated (2004) on frozen neon or argon. If you try and make it by adding hydroxide to a solution of Hg2+ what you get is HgO, Mercury(II) oxide as a precipitate.

What is the name for the compound HgOH?
Mercury (I) hydroxide.
What is the chemical HgOH?
HgOH would be called mercury(I) hydroxide or mercurous hydroxide. This is a compound that is not well characterised, in other words it is reported by chemists but (as far as I know) the existence of the solid compound has not been proven- e.g. by x-ray crystallography. Some authors say it only exists in solution. It would contain the diatomic Hg22+ ion and the formula would be written Hg2(OH)2.
What is Mercury Hydroxide use for?
Magnesium hydroxide is used as an antacid to neutralise the effect of acid in the stomach.
