Question
Consider the following equation:
C6H8O7(s)  + 3 NaHCO3(s) + H2O(l) --> Na3C6H8O7(s) + 3H2O(l) + 3CO2(g)

193.6 g C6H8O7(s)  is reacted at 313K  and the CO2 gas is collected in a 108.4 L flask. The reaction has 100 percent yield. 
What is the pressure of CO2 gas in the flask in units of mm Hg? Molar mass C6H8O7 = 192.1 g
 
Hint: calculate the amount of moles CO2 gas that will be made, and use PV = nRT to calculate P in atm
Hint: in final step you must convert atm  to mm Hg ; 760 mm Hg = 1 atm
