How much energy must be removed from a 125 g sample of benzene (molar mass = 78.11 g mol^-1) at 425.0 K to liquify the sample and lower the temperature to 335.0 K? The following physical data may be useful: Δ_vapH = 33.9 kJ mol^-1
Δ_fusH = 9.8 kJ mol^-1
C_liq = 1.73 J g^-1 °C^-1
C_gas= 1.06 J g^-1 °C^-1
C_sol = 1.51 J g^-1 °C^-1
T_melting= 279.0 K
T_boiling = 353.0 K

First, cool the benzene gas from 425.0 K to 353.0 K using C_gas. Then, condense it at 353.0 K using Δ_vapH. Finally, cool the liquid benzene from 353.0 K to 335.0 K using C_liq. Calculate each step and sum the energies.
