Sodium hydrogen carbonate nahco3, also known as sodium bicarbonate or "baking soda", can be used to relieve acid indigestion. acid indigestion is the burning sensation you get in your stomach when it contains too much hydrochloric acid hcl, which the stomach secretes to digest food. drinking a glass of water containing dissolved nahco3 neutralizes excess hcl through this reaction: hcl(aq)+nahco3(aq)→nacl(aq)+h2o(l)+ co2(g)

the co2gas produced is what makes you burp after drinking the solution. suppose the fluid in the stomach of a woman suffering from indigestion can be considered to be 200.ml of a 0.089m hcl solution. what mass of nahco3 would she need to ingest to neutralize this much hcl? be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.
