Solution

The correct option is A 5.56 mL
Let V mL of 0.8 M AlCl3 be mixed with 50 mL of 0.2 M CaCl2

Total number of millimoles =3×0.8×V+2×0.2×50=2.4V+20

The total volume of the solution =V+50 mL.

Molarity =Number of moles of chloride ionsVolume of the solution=2.4V+20V+50=0.6M.

2.4V+20=0.6V+30

1.8V=3020

V=101.8=5.56 ml

Hence, option A is correct.
