Detailed Solution

$\begin{aligned} {ΔH}_{f} [{CO}_{2} (g)] = - 393.5 kJ / mole \\ {ΔH}_{f} [H_{2} O (ℓ)] = - 286.0 kJ / mole \\ {ΔH}_{c} [C_{6} H_{6}] = - 3267.0 kJ / mole \\ {ΔH}_{f} C_{6} H_{6} = (?) \end{aligned}$
$\begin{aligned} C_{6} H_{6} + \frac{15}{2} O_{2} (g) ⟶ 6 {CO}_{2} (g) + 3 H_{2} O (ℓ) \\ {ΔH}_{R} = {ΔH}_{C} = {ΣΔH}_{f} (P) - {ΣΔH}_{f} (R) \\ - 3267 = 6 \times (- 393.5) + 3 (- 286) - {ΔH}_{f} (C_{6} H_{6}) \\ {ΔH}_{f} (C_{6} H_{6}) = 48 kJ / mole \end{aligned}$
