When 0.455 g of anthracene,C₁₄H₁₀,is combusted in a bomb calorimeter that has a water jacket containing 500.g of water,the temperature of the water increases by 8.63°C.Assuming that the specific heat of water is 4.18 J/(g ∙ °C) ,and that the heat absorption by the calorimeter is negligible,estimate the enthalpy of combustion per mole of anthracene.

A) +39.7 kJ/mol
B) -39.7 kJ/mol
C) -7070 kJ/mol
D) -8120 kJ/mol
