Question:

A sample of benzene, C6H6, weighing 3.51 g was burned in an excess of oxygen in a bomb calorimeter. The temperature of the calorimeter rose from 25.00oC to 37.18oC. If the heat capacity of the calorimeter and contents was 12.05 kJ/oC, what is the value of q for burning 1.25 mol of benzene at constant volume and 25.00oC? The reaction is
