Grams of bicarbonate vs realeased CO2? So, it's been a good two years since I've done chemistry and I have my first university lab in a few days and I'm sort of freaking out because I can't even remember how to do stoichiometry properly. This a question off of my pre-lab review and I'm having troubles remembering what to do. I believe this is a limiting reagent question.

In Experiment 1, you will place and AlkaSeltzer tablet in each of the dilute $\ce{HCl}$ solutions you prepared. The reaction between $\ce{HCl}$ and $\ce{NaHCO3}$ should take place quickly and release gaseous $\ce{CO2}$. You will then use the mass lost for each flask to determine the amount of $\ce{NaHCO3}$ that reacted.
A student performs this experiment and determines that $\pu{1.60 g}$ of $\ce{CO2}$ were lost. How many grams of $\ce{NaHCO3}$ would have reacted to produce this amount of $\ce{CO2}$?

Firstly, I wrote out part of the equation but I'm also beginning to think it's incorrect too:
$$\ce{NaHCO3(aq) + HCl(aq) &lt;=&gt; CO2(g) + NaCl + H2O(l)}$$
The initial amount for $\ce{NaHCO3}$, I know, is unknown and the final amount for $\ce{CO2}$ is $\pu{1.60 g}$. Other than that though I'm at a loss for what to do next. Please help if you can, thank you!
Edit (see answer): To calculate the amount of moles in $\ce{CO2(g)}$ I used the formula $m/M = n$, which gave me 0.36355 moles for carbon dioxide. Now I use 0.36355 moles for $\ce{NaHCO3(aq)}$ since it's a 1:1 ratio.
Thank you for all the help, I've figured out the answer:

$$\ce{NaHCO3(aq) + HCl(aq) -&gt; NaCl(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(l)}$$

Since we're given $\pu{1.60 g}$ of $\ce{CO2(g)}$ we can use the mass to calculate the number of moles with the equation: 

$$n = \frac{m}{M} = \frac{\pu{1.60 g}}{\pu{44.01 g mol-1}} = \pu{0.036355 mol}$$

Since it's a 1 : 1 ratio between $\ce{NaHCO3(aq)}$ and $\ce{CO2(g)}$, we can directly solve for the mass of $\ce{NaHCO3(aq)}$ using the same formula: 

$$n = \frac{m}{M} $$

$$m = n \times M = \pu{0.036355 mol} \times \pu{83.42 g mol-1} = \pu{3.0509116 g}$$ 

Round to two decimal places: $\pu{3.05 g}$
