If you mean calcium iodide then you need a mass of 587.78g.

Explanation:

Concentration=Moles of soluteVolume of solution

And thus moles of solute=concentration×volume of solution

And from the boundary conditions of the problem:

moles of solute=concentration×volume

moles of solute=2.0molL1×1L=2.0mol.

And 2 moles of calcium iodide represents a mass of 2mol×293.89gmol1=??g.
