Answer:
Mg⁺² = 0.525 mol/L
Cl⁻ = 1.05 mol/L
Explanation:
The formula for magnesium chloride is MgCl₂, and in a solution the following process takes place:
By analyzing the stoichiometric coefficients, we can tell that the concentration of Mg⁺² ions is the same as the concentration of MgCl₂, while the Cl⁻ concentration is twice that value.
In other words:
