Molar concentration or Molarity is a way to measure the concentration of a solution after some solute has been added to the solvent, the formula for Molarity is:

M = n/V

where:

M = molar concentration

n = number of moles

V = volume of the solution in Liters

In the question we are given the molarity and volume, let's add these information to our formula

0.6 M = n/2.5 L

n = 1.5 moles of Iodine should be added
