Benzene (C6H6) burns in air to produce carbon dioxide and liquid water. What is the heat released when 49.04 grams of benzene is combusted?

Benzene (C6H6) burns in air to produce carbon dioxide and liquid water. What is the heat released when 49.04 grams of benzene is combusted? The standard enthalpy of formation of benzene is 49.04 kJ/mol

-3268 kJ 1000 J 1 ev 1 amu 1.66054 x 10-27 1000 g
mol 1 kJ 1.60218 x 10-19 J 931.5 x 106 J 1 amu 1 kJ

= -1.14 x 10-28 grams
