Solution

The correct option is A $- 7.43 k J$
$△ H - △ U$ = $△ n$ RT
$△ n$ = Number of moles of gaseous products $-$ number of moles of gaseous reactants.
$△ n$ = $12 - 15$ = $- 3$
$△ H$ is change in enthalpy
$△ U$ is change in internal energy
Substituting the respective values,
$△ H - △ U = - 3 \times 8.314 \times 298 = - 7.43 k J$
