Pi-P​o = 2T / r 

Where PiThe pressure inside the bubble 

Po= The pressure outside the bubble = Here when er talk about the surface the pressure can be considered to be zero 

T = surface tension , r = radius of the bubble= 0.2 mm = 0.2/1000 m  

on substituing the values  = P = 2 x 0.07 x1000 / 0.2 = 700 N /m²
= 700 Pa
