We are given:

Volume of Solution: 5.7 Liters

Concentration: 1.64 Molar

Number of moles required:

We know that the formula for concentration (in molar) is:

M = N / V

where M is the concentration, N is the number of moles, and V is the volume of solution (in L)

plugging the given values in the equation:

1.64 = N / 5.7

N = 1.64 * 5.7

N = 9.35 moles
