As 'hg2no32' it means nothing. !!!!

However, I think you mean

Hg2(NO3)2 , which is Mercury(I) nitrate ; ( Mercurous nitrate).

NB ; When writing chemical formula, single letter elemental symbols are ALWAYS written as a CAPITAL letter. Two letter symbols are written , first letter is a capital letter and the second letter is small/lower case.

This is the recognised international IUPAC standard, and as shown on the Periodic Table.

Hence

Mercury(Hydragyrum(Hg)) is Hg , NOT 'hg'.

Nitrogen is 'N' , NOT 'n'

Oxygen is 'O' , NOT 'o'.

Also note the use of brackets to indicate two nitrate anions. As you have given it , it could be read as 'thirty two oxygens'.
