There are 0.0108 mol NiCl_2. 0.0216 mol NaOH are required, given 0.200 mol*L^-1 NaOH(aq).

Explanation:

NiCl_2(aq) + 2NaOH(aq) rarr Ni(OH)_2(s)darr + 2NaCl(aq)

There are 0.0108 mol NiCl_2 (22.0xx10^(-3)cancelLxx0.490*mol*cancel(L^-1)). So, by stoichiometry 0.0216 mol NaOH are required.

There is 0.200 mol*L^-1 NaOH solution available, so...

(0.0216*cancel(mol))/(0.200*cancel(mol)*cancel(L^-1))xx1000*mL*cancel(L^-1) = ?? mL
