Table sugar consists mostly of sucrose, C12H22O11. The standard enthalpy of combustion for sucrose is the standard state delta H for the reaction:

C12H22O11 + 12 O 2 ---> 12 CO2 + 11 H2O
Calculate this standard state delta H. Give answer in units of kJ to five significant figures. Use the following values of standard enthalpy of formation (in kJ/mol): CO2 = -393.51, H2O = -285.83, C12H22O11 = -2221.2.
