Enthalpy of combustion -

Amount of Enthalpy change when 1 mole of substance is completly burn in excess of Oxygen

CO+\frac{1}{2}O_{2}\rightarrow CO_{2};\;\;\;\Delta H=-68.3\;kcal

 

Combustion reaction of solid boron

B\left ( s \right )+\frac{3}{4}O_{2}\left ( g \right )\rightarrow \frac{1}{2}B_{2}O_{3}\left ( s \right )

\Delta H^{\circ}_{c}=\frac{1}{2}\Delta H^{\circ}_{f}\left ( B_{2} O_{3},s\right )-\Delta H^{\circ}_{f}\left ( B,s \right )-\frac{3}{4}\Delta H^{\circ}_{f}\left ( O_{2},g \right )

\Delta H^{\circ}_{f}  of element in stable state of aggregation is assumed to be zero.

\Delta H^{\circ}C=\frac{1}{2}\; \Delta H^{\circ}f\left ( B_{2}O_{3},s \right )

Therefore, Option(2) is correct.
