`DeltaU^(-)` of combustion of methane is `-x kJ mol^(-1)`. The value of `DeltaH^(-)` is:

Options

A. `=DeltaU^(Theta)`
B. `gt DeltaU^(Theta)`
C. `lt DeltaU^(Theta)`
D. `=0`

Explanation

To find the value of ΔH for the combustion of methane given that ΔU = -x kJ/mol, we can follow these steps:

### Step 1: Understand the relationship between ΔH and ΔU
The relationship between the change in enthalpy (ΔH) and the change in internal energy (ΔU) is given by the equation:
\[ \Delta H = \Delta U + P \Delta V \]
For ideal gases, this can also be expressed as:
