Combution of Heptane is -

 C_{7}H_{18}\left ( l \right )+11O_{2}\left ( g \right )\rightarrow 7CO_{2}\left ( g \right )+8 H_{2}O\left ( l \right )

Change in gaseous moles =7-11=-4

               \Delta H=\Delta U+\Delta n_{g}RT

             \Delta H-\Delta U=-4RT


Option 1)

 -4\: RT  

Option 2)

 -3\: RT

Option 3)

4\: RT

Option 4)

3\: RT
