Solution

The correct option is A CaCO3(s)+HCl(aq)
In laboratory, CO2 is prepared by the action of dilute HCl on CaCO3

CaCO3(s)+HCl(aq)CO2(g)+H2O(l)+CaCl2(aq)

Reaction (b) is a industrial method. Here, the CO2 is produces as a by-product during the manufacture of CaO

CaCO3(s)CaO(s)+CO2(g)

In reaction (c), methane gas is highly inflammable so it is not used in laboratory for preparation of CO2.
Thus, option (a) is correct.
