Convert 4.691 g MgCl2 to moles. moles = grams/molar mass.
There is 1 Mg ion/molecule MgCl2; therefore, moles Mg = moles MgCl2.
M Mg ion = moles/L = moles from above/0.750 = ??
A 4.691 g sample of MgCl2 is dissolved in enough water to give 750. mL of solution. What is the magnesium ion concentration in this solution?

But when the MgCl2 is dissolved it will form MgO which is solid as well as HCl. So some if not all Of the Mg+ ions will have been used to form the MgO precipitate.
