Answer:
fH = - 3,255.7 kJ/mol
Explanation:
Because the bomb calorimeter is adiabatic (q =0), there'is no heat inside or outside it, so the heat flow from the combustion plus the heat flow of the system (bomb, water, and the contents) must be 0.
Qsystem + Qcombustion = 0
Qsystem = heat capacity*ΔT
10000*(25.000 - 20.826) + Qc = 0
Qcombustion = - 41,740 J = - 41.74 kJ
So, the enthaply of formation of benzene (fH) at 298.15 K (25.000 ºC) is the heat of the combustion, divided by the number of moles of it. The molar mass od benzene is: 6x12 g/mol of C + 6x1 g/mol of H = 78 g/mol, and:
n = mass/molar mass = 1/ 78
n = 0.01282 mol
fH = -41.74/0.01282
fH = - 3,255.7 kJ/mol
I don’t know what exactly is but see at the picture.
The SI base units and their physical quantities are the metre for measurement of length, the kilogram for mass, the second for time, the ampere for electric current, the kelvin for temperature, the candela for luminous intensity, and the mole for amount of substance.
