The solubility of benzoic acid in water at room temperature is 0.54 g per 100 mL of water.  If 4.95 g of benzoic acid are dissolved in 100 mL of hot water (assume all of the benzoic acid dissolves) and then allowed to cool to room tempuerature followed by vacuum filtration, how many grams of benzoic acid crystals will be obtained?  Express your answer to two decimal places and don't forget the units.
