Assuming complete precipitation of AgCl, calculate the sum if the molar concentration of all the ions if 2 lit. of 2M Ag2SO4 is mixed with 4 lit. of 1M NaCl solution?

This question is POORLY proposed....we should use aqueous silver nitrate....

Explanation:

..why? Because silver sulfate is minimally soluble in water...

And so we change the parameters of the question....i.e. we gots a #2*L# volume of #2*mol*L^-1# #AgNO_3(aq)#...

And thus we write the precipitation equation....

#AgNO_3(aq) + NaCl(aq) rarr AgCl(s)darr + NaNO_3(aq)#

Anyway, you should point this out to your teacher. Silver chloride is as soluble as a brick, and precipitates from aqueous solution as a curdy white solid....
