The time of sunrise and sunset is very dependent on the date and exact location. You didn't specify a date, so I used July 15, 2011. The times of sunrise and sunset will be several minutes different for the 1st or the 31st.
You can easily calculate the time of sunrise or sunset by visiting the web site of the U.S. Naval Observatory at http://www.usno.navy.mil/USNO/astronomical-applications/data-services/rs-one-day-us.
