The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

The reaction \( H_2 (g) + \frac{1}{2} O_2 (g) \to H_2 O (l) \) (assuming completion with oxygen) releases heat and is the combustion of hydrogen gas to form water. The enthalpy change for this reaction is the enthalpy of combustion.
Answer: combustion.
