![### Thermochemical Reaction for Kerosene
**Consider the following thermochemical reaction:**
\[ 2 \, \text{C}_{12}\text{H}_{26} \, (\text{l}) + 37 \, \text{O}_2 \, (\text{g}) \rightarrow 24 \, \text{CO}_2 \, (\text{g}) + 26 \, \text{H}_2\text{O} \, (\text{l}) \]
\[
\Delta H = -15026 \, \text{kJ}
\]
**Problem Statement:**
If this reaction were used to generate heat, how many grams of \(\text{C}_{12}\text{H}_{26}\) would be needed to generate enough heat to raise the temperature of 584 g of water from 10°C to 18°C?
The specific heat for water is 4.184 J/g°C. Provide your answer to two decimal places and include units.
