Solution

The correct option is D $- 20 k c a l$
Given, $C (s) + O_{2} (g) \to C O_{2} (g) Δ H = - 94.2 k c a l . . . . (1)$
$H_{2} (g) + \frac{1}{2} O_{2} (g) \to H_{2} O (l) Δ H = - 68.3 k c a l . . . . (2)$
$C H_{4} (g) + 2 O_{2} (g) \to C O_{2} (g) + 2 H_{2} O (l) Δ H = - 210.8 k c a l . . . . (3)$
we need $C (s) + 2 H_{2} (g) \to C H_{4} (g)$

multiply equation 2 by 2, we get
$2 H_{2} (g) + O_{2} (g) \to 2 H_{2} O (l) Δ H = + 2 \times (- 68.3) k c a l . . . . . . . . . . . .4$

reversing the equation 3, we get
$C O_{2} (g) + 2 H_{2} O (l) \to C H_{4} (g) + 2 O_{2} (g) Δ H = (+ 210.8) k c a l . . . . . . . . .5$

adding eqn 1, 4 and 5 to get $C (s) + 2 H_{2} (g) \to C H_{4} (g)$
so, heat of formation of methane $= (- 94.2 + 2 \times (- 68.3) + 210.8) k c a l$
$= - 20 k c a l$
