Solution

The correct option is B 114kJ
In the reaction, NaOH(aq)+HCl(aq)NaCl(aq)+H2O(l), one equivalent of hydrogen ions is neutralized with one equivalents of hydroxide ions. The enthalpy change is -57 kJ.
In the reaction Ba(OH)2+H2SO4(aq)BaSO4(s)+2H2O(l), two equivalents of hydrogen ions are neutralized with 2 equivalents of hydroxide ions . The enthalpy of neutralization is 2×(57kJ)=114kJ
