Default Stoichiometry ... Tough Question

For those who are experts in Chemistry, right now I'm on a brink of death suffering from my depression for two days for trying to figure out the answer for this problem:

Silver Nitrate reacts with calcium chloride according to the following reaction:

2 AgNO3 (aq) + CaCl2(aq) -- > 2 AgCl(s) + Ca(NO3)2 (aq)

Calculate the mass of AgCl that would be formed by reacting 100 cm3 of 0.200 M AgNO3 solution with 100cm3 of 0.500 M CaCl2 solution. Which of the two solutions is the limiting reagent? What will be the concentration of the solution that is in excess?

Okay, so I can solve the problem easily if it it had nothing to do with "M" things. I don't udnerstand this. Please help me. Regards.
