Detailed Solution

 The reaction for the combustion of carbon is given below:

C+O2CO2 

The enthalpy for this reaction is -96 k.cal when one mole of oxygen is used.

For one mole the volume at STP will be 22.4 L.

When 0.5 moles of oxygen is used then 48 k.cal of heat is released.

So, the volume at STP will be:

Volume=22.4 × 0.5 = 11.2 L 

Therefore, the correct option is C.
