Answer:

146 grams Mg

Explanation:

Mg + 2AgNO3 -> 2Ag + Mg(NO3)2

The balanced equation tells us we need 1 mole of Mg for every 2 moles of silver nitrate.

Since we have 3.00 moles of AgNO3, we'll need 2x that, or 6 moles of Mg.

The molar mass of Mg is 24.3 grams/mole

(6 moles Mg)(24.3 grams Mg/mole Mg) =  145.8 grams Mg.  146 grams with 3 sig figs.
