Density of Gas

One procedure used to separate the isotopes of uranium to obtain material to construct a nuclear weapon employs uranium compound with the formula UF##_6## . The compound boils at about 56 ##^{\circ}##C, so at 100 ##^{\circ}##C it is a gas. What is the density of 1.00 mol of UF##_6## at 100 ##^{\circ}##C if the pressure of the gas is 0.974 atm. (MM of U = 352.0 g/mol)
