$2 mol$ of $Hg ( g )$ is combusted in a fixed volume bomb calorimeter with excess of $O _2$ at $298 K$ and $1 atm$ into $HgO ( s$ ). During the reaction, temperature increases from $298.0 K$ to $312.8 K$. If heat capacity of the bomb calorimeter and enthalpy of formation of $Hg ( g )$ are $20.00 kJ K ^{-1}$ and $61.32 kJ mol ^{-1}$ at $298 K$, respectively, the calculated standard molar enthalpy of formation of $HgO ( s )$ at $298 K ^{\text {is }} XkJ mol ^{-1}$.
