please help wirh 1,2,4 thank you!! this is all the info we were given. Im not sure if that means we have to look up the values of the internal energy of the carbon molecule or assume they're all zero in number 1

1) Buckminsterfullerene was discovered in 1985 at Rice University. It is a carbon molecule that has a soccer ball-like fused-ring structure (truncated icosahedron) composed of twenty hexagons and twelve pentagons. Determine the components of the internal energy (that is, van der Waals, electrostatic, translation, rotation, bond, angle, dihedral) that would be nonzero for solid buckminsterfullerene at 270K.
2)The Redlich-Kwong equation of state provides a generally more accurate description of the behavior of gases than either the ideal gas law and the van der Waals equations of state. Calculate (delPdelT)Vm for the ideal gas law, the van der Waals equations of state, and the Redlich-Kwong equation of state, and comment on differences in the partial derivative between each equation of state.
3)Identical amounts of heat are applied to 50.g blocks of lead, silver, and copper, all at an initial temperature of 25.C. Which block will have the largest increase in temperature? Provide justification and explain why.
4)A platinum ring is dropped in a pool of water and cools to equilibrium. Determine the initial temperature of the platinum ring (mass =366.g) if the ring has a final temperature of 12.0C and loses 3.31kJ of heat. The specific heat capacity of platinum is 0.139JgK.
