The normal melting point of naphthalene (molar mass = 128.2 g/mol) is 80.2 C and it rises by 2.32 C when the pressure increases

The normal melting point of naphthalene (molar mass = 128.2 g/mol) is 80.2 C and it rises by 2.32 C when the pressure increases by 100 atmospheres. The density of solid naphthalene is 1.15 g/mL and the density of the liquid is 10% less than the density of the solid. From this information, calculate the enthalpy of fusion (in kJ/mol) for maphthalene. (Note: Report your answer to three significant figures with the abbreviated form of the unit.)
