I have a Hp Pavilion 2019 and the model 3 is 6WU81AV I wanted to know is it possible to have 2 monitors tied into this laptop and recognized as 2 different monitors so I can extend the display? I also wanted to know if my system can handle two 32 gigabyte sticks of ram, and a 2.5 inch ssd hard drive, when It only has a 1 terabyte ssd stick, rather than a 2.5 inch ssd drive, and if so how do I install the ssd?

By default, this laptop can only use a single extra monitor, through its HDMI port.

If you want more displays you need to get something like a docking station, which serves basically as a videocard of its own (so the display(s) connected wont use the videocard in the laptop). 

Example: https://www.amazon.com/Plugable-Universal-Docking-Station-Ethernet/dp/B00ECDM78E

This plugs into one of the normal USB ports of your laptop and allows for another display to connect (even as extended)

No, the service manual mentions the laptop supports up to 16GB of memory.

This HP expert on their forum says yes, provided you get the SSD (obviously :P ) and a certain cable, which is probably not included with your laptop: https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Hardware-and-Upgrade-Questions/What-is-correct-HDD-type-to-add-as-second-drive-on-Pavillion/td-p/7674876

Not for extending your monitor, only for duplicating it as indicated by the product's description:

THIS UNIT DOES NOT EXTEND MONITORS - ONLY Split one HDMI input signal to two HDMI output signals identical to the input signal
