According to my astronomy book, it's about 0.206
The answer is: " 56 g CaCl₂ " .

Explanation:

2.0 M CaCl₂ = 2.0 mol CaCl₂ / L ;
Since: "M" = "Molarity" (measurement of concentration);
= moles of solute per L {"Liter"} of solution.

Note the exact conversion: 1000 mL = 1 L .
Given: 250 mL ;
250 mL = ? L ? ;
250 mL * (1 L / 1000 L) = (250/1000) L = 0.25 L .
___________________________________________________________
(2.0 mol CaCl₂ / L ) * (0.25L) = (2.0) * (0.25) mol = 0.50 mol CaCl₂ ;
We have: 0.50 mol CaCl₂ ; Convert to "g" (grams):
→ 0.50 mol CaCl₂ .

1 mol CaCl₂ = ? g ?
From the Periodic Table of Elements:
1 mol Ca = 40.08 g
1 mol Cl = <span>35.45 g .
</span>
There are 2 atoms of Cl in " CaCl₂ " ;
→ Note the subscript, "2", in the " Cl₂ " ;
__________________________________________________________
So, to calculate the molar mass of "CaCl₂" :
40.08 g + 2(35.45 g) =
40.08 g + 70.90 g = 110.98 g ; round to 4 significant figures;
→ round to 111 g/mol .
__________________________________________________________
So:
→ 0.50 mol CaCl₂ = ? g CaCl₂ ? ;
→ 0.50 mol CaCl₂ * (111 g CaCl₂ / mol CaCl₂) ;
= (0.50) * (111 g) CaCl₂ ;
= 55.5 g CaCl₂ ;
→ round to 2 significant figures;
→ 56 g CaCl₂ .

The answer is: " 56 g CaCl₂ " .

The metric system is based on powers of 10 so it is much easier to convert units, often just by moving the decimal point.
Answer:
in 1983, Lake Mead had a recorded water level of 1,225 feet above sea level. The closest it's been to that level in modern times was in 2000. Explanation:
