Expert Solution
Step 1

Given : Mass of MnCl2 i.e Manganese (II) chloride = 21.7 g

And volume of solution = 125 mL = 0.125 L                                             (since 1 L = 1000 mL)

Molar mass of MnCl2 = Atomic mass of Mn + Atomic mass of Cl X 2 = 54.9 + 35.5 X 2 = 125.9 g/mol

Since mass = moles X molar mass 

=> 21.7 = moles of MnCl2 X 125.9 

=> moles of MnCl2 = 0.17236 mol approx.
