The heat of combustion of graphite at 298 K is -393.795 kJ/mole, while that of diamond's combustion at the same temperature is -395.692 kJ/mole. The specific heats for these substances are 720.83 and 505.58 `J kg^(-1)K^(-1)` respectively. Calculate the heat of graphite's transformation into diamond at 273 K.
