Step 1: Calculate \mathrm{C_p} at both temperatures

                                   \mathrm{ \begin{aligned} & C_{p 1}=20+0.02 \cdot 300=26 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{mol} \cdot \mathrm{K} \\\\ & C_{p 2}=20+0.02 \cdot 500=30 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{mol} \cdot \mathrm{K} \end{aligned} }
Step 2: Calculate the change in temperature \mathrm{\Delta T=T_2-T_1=500 \mathrm{~K}- 300 \mathrm{~K}=200 \mathrm{~K}}

Step 3: Calculate the change in enthalpy using the formula \mathrm{\Delta H=n \cdot C_p \cdot \Delta T}

                             \mathrm{ \Delta H=2 \mathrm{~mol} \cdot(30 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{mol} \cdot \mathrm{K}) \cdot 200 \mathrm{~K}=12000 \mathrm{~J}=12 \mathrm{~kJ} }
Therefore, the change in enthalpy \mathrm{(\Delta H)} for the given process is \mathrm{12 \mathrm{~kJ}}. Therefore, the correct option is \mathrm{\mathbf{A}.}
