Calculate the internal energy of combustion of d-ribose


A sample of sugar-d-ribose (C2H10O5) of mass .727g was placed in acalorimeter and then ignited in the precense of excess oxygen. The temperature rose by .910K. In a separate experiment in the camecalorimeter, the combustion of .825g/mol of benzoic acid, for which the internal energy of the combustion is -3251kj/mol, gave atemperature rise of 1.940 K. Calculate the internal energy of combustion of d-ribose and its enthalpy of formation.
