Detailed Solution

 The given reaction is C2H4+O22CO2+H2O

 Balancing the equation

 C2H4+3O22CO2+2H2O

 At STP 1 mol of gas occupies 22.L,

 C2H4=1×22.4=22.4 L

 O2=3×22.4=67.2 L

 CO2=2×22.4=44.8 L

 H2O=2×22.4=44.8 L

 For 67.2 L of oxygen heat of combustion is -337Kcal, then for 5.6 L is

 -337×5.6667.2=-28.08kCal

Hence the correct option is (A).
