Final answer:

To calculate the volume in milliliters of the iron(II) bromide solution, divide the mass of FeBr2 by the concentration and then convert the volume from liters to milliliters.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the volume in milliliters of the 1.88 mol/L iron(II) bromide solution that contains 100 g of iron(II) bromide (FeBr2), we can use the formula: volume = (mass of solute) / (concentration). First, we need to calculate the number of moles of FeBr2 using the formula: moles = mass / molar mass. Then, we can calculate the volume using the formula: volume = moles / concentration. In this case, the molar mass of FeBr2 is 187.77 g/mol. Plug in the given values into the formula to get the volume in liters. Finally, convert the volume from liters to milliliters by multiplying by 1000.
