Answer:

The methane gas burns

Step-by-step explanation:

The burning of methane gas is a combustion reaction. Combustion is an exothermic process. For all exothermic processes, ∆H is negative.

Combustion reaction involves the evolution of heat. The energy of reactants is greater than the energy of products hence the excess energy is given off in the form of heat leading to a negative value of the enthalpy of reaction, hence the answer.
