Answer #1

Mass of MgBr2 = 169.32 gm

Molar mass of MgBr2 =  184.113 g/mol

Concentration of MgBr2 = 169.42 gm / 184.113 g/ml x 1.47 L = 0.625 M

Every MgBr2 has two bromine atoms. When it dissolves, it produces two equivalent of bromine atoms.

Concentration of bromide ion = 0.625 M x 2 = 1.2519 M

Hence 1.2519 M of bromide ions are present in the solution
