Solution

The correct option is C $359.7 k J$
Equation,
$C H_{4} + 2 O_{2} \to C O_{2} + 2 H_{2} O$
$Δ H = H_{P (P r o d u c t)} - H_{R (R e a c t a n t)}$
$Δ H_{f}^{\circ} (C O_{2}) + 2 Δ H_{f}^{\circ} (H_{2} O) - (Δ H_{f}^{\circ} (C H_{4}) + 2 Δ H_{f}^{\circ} (O_{2}))$
$= - 398.8 - 2 \times 241.6 - (- 76.2 + 2 \times 0) = - 805.8 k J m o l^{- 1}$
$22.4 L o f C H_{4} ( 1 mole) gives 805.8 k J$
$10 L o f C H_{4} will give \frac{805.8}{22.4} \times 10 = 359.73 k J$
Hence, Option C is correct.
