Answer:

[tex]n_{Cl^-}=25molCl^-[/tex]

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the given 5-M concentration of magnesium chloride is expressed as:

[tex]5\frac{molMgCl_2}{L}[/tex]

We can notice that one mole of salt contains two moles of chloride ions as the subscript of chlorine is two, in such a way, with the volume of solution we obtain the moles of chloride ions as shown below:

[tex]n_{Cl^-}=5\frac{molMgCl_2}{L}*\frac{2molCl^-}{1molMgCl_2} *2.5L\\\\n_{Cl^-}=25molCl^-[/tex]

Best regards.
