An important flavor component of vanilla extract is vanillin (C8H8O3, molar mass = 152.15 g/mol). When vanillin burns in a bomb calorimeter with a heat capacity of 14.18 kJ/°C, the temperature increases from 25.22°C to 31.57°C. If the heat of combustion of vanillin is -3,760 kJ/mol, what mass of vanillin (in g) was combusted? Please give your answer to 2 decimal places.
