Although 1013.25 mb (760 mm Hg) is considered to be the standard atmospheric pressure at sea level, it does not mean that the pressure at this level has this value, actually this being 1011 mb.
1) Chemical equation
Na2 SiO3 (s) + 8 HF (aq) ---> H2 Si F6 (aq) + 2 Na F (aq) + 3H2O (l)
It is balanced
2) Molar ratios
1 mol Na2 SiO3 : 8 mol HF.
3) Proportion
0.340 mol Na2 SiO3 * 8 mol HF / 1mol Na2SiO3 = 2.72 mol HF.
Answer: 2.72 mol HF
