Answer:

424 grams CaCl₂

Explanation:

To find the mass of CaCl₂, you need to (1) calculate the moles (using the molarity ratio) and then (2) convert moles to grams (using the molar mass). The final answer should have 3 sig figs to match the given value with the least amount of sig figs.

(Step 1)

Molarity (M) = moles / volume (L)

1.56 M = moles / 2.451 L

3.82 = moles

(Step 2)

Molar Mass (CaCl₂): 40.078 g/mol + 2(35.453 g/mol)

Molar Mass (CaCl₂): 110.984 g/mol

3.82 moles CaCl₂           110.984 g
----------------------------  x  -------------------  =  424 grams CaCl₂
                                          1 mole
