Hello,
If you have a basic idea of equivalent mass concept then you can easily solve the question.
FeCl3 is a salt. The equivalent mass can be calculated from the molecular weight of the salt and the valency of salt.
A salt like FeCl3 can be dissociated into ions easily. The charge on the ions of salt can be written as the valency of the salt.
Now FeCl3 dissocites into Fe3+ and Cl- so basically the valency( higher valency) for the salt is 3.
So molecular mass / valency will give us equivalent mass that is 162.5/3 = 54.16g
I hope you find the answer helpful
Thank you
