For the given reaction:

\mathrm{2 H _{2} O _{2}(l) \rightarrow 2 H _{2} O ( l )+ O _{2}( g )}

The enthalpy change for the reaction is defined as

\mathrm{\Delta H_R = 2\times H_{f,\ H_2O}^0+ H_{f,\ O_2}^0-2 \times H_{f,\ H_2O_2}^0}

\therefore \mathrm{\Delta H_R = 2\times (-286)+ 0 -2 \times (-188)= -196}

Hence, the correct answer is Option(1)
