IUPAC Sign Convention -

Any type of energy (Heat, Work ) given to system is positive 

Any type of energy take out from the system

 

- wherein

W= +10 j i.e. 10 J work done on the system

q= -10 j i.e. 10 J released by the system

 

W is -ve means work is being done by the system and hence it's energy will decrease.

Therefore, Option(4) is correct.
