The statement that best describes a solution is the option C: a mixture having a uniform composition where the components cannot be seen separately and all components are in the same state.<span> That is exactly what a solution is: a homogeneous mixture, the composition is uniform, but it can vary from one solution to other. The components must be in the safe phase, but it can be any phase: solid, liquid or gas. The most classical and clear example is the salt solution, NaCl. When you dissolve a spoon of NaCl in water you will not be able to distinguish nor separating the solute from the solvent, and the mixture will have uniform composition.</span>
The final temperature = 36 °C

The balanced combustion reaction for C₆H₆
2C₆H₆(l)+15O₂(g)⇒ 12CO₂(g)+6H₂O(l) +6542 kJ
MW C₆H₆ : 78.11 g/mol
mol C₆H₆ :

Heat released for 2 mol C₆H₆ =6542 kJ, so for 1 mol

Heat transferred to water :
Q=m.c.ΔT
