If you mean "calcium iodide"calcium iodide then you need a mass of 587.78*g587.78g.

Explanation:

"Concentration"="Moles of solute"/"Volume of solution"Concentration=Moles of soluteVolume of solution

And thus "moles of solute"="concentration"xx"volume of solution"moles of solute=concentration×volume of solution

And from the boundary conditions of the problem:

"moles of solute"="concentration"xx"volume"moles of solute=concentration×volume

"moles of solute"=2.0*mol*L^-1xx1*L=2.0*molmoles of solute=2.0molL1×1L=2.0mol.

And "2 moles of calcium iodide"2 moles of calcium iodide represents a mass of 2*"mol"xx293.89* g*mol^-1=??g.2mol×293.89gmol1=??g.
