First you have to get from grams of FeCl3 to moles by dividing the grams by the molar mass of FeCl3, 162.21.
7.83 / 162.21 = .0483 mols

Second, you have to convert from moles of FeCl3 to moles of Fe. With this compound, for every mole of FeCl3 there is one mole of Fe.
.0483 mols FeCl3 = .0483 mols Fe

Lastly, find molarity by dividing moles by liters.
.0483 mols / 2.50 L = .0193 M

In what units?
7.83 g FeCl3/2.50 L = 3.13 g/L or
3.13 x (55.85/162.2) = 1.08 g Fe^+3/L.
