According to the explanation given in a previous session, now we have to use the same molarity formula to find the number of moles of CaCl2, let's set up the formula and add the values:

M = n/V

4.9 = n/0.750

n = 4.9*0.750

n = 3.675 moles of CaCl2

Now to find the mass in grams, we need both the number of moles, 3.675 moles, and also the molar mass of CaCl2, which is, 110.98g/mol

110.98g = 1 mol

x grams = 3.675 moles

x = 407.85 grams of CaCl2
