Solution

The average bond energy of a C-H bond in methane is represented by the energy change when one mole of the bond is broken. This is represented by the equation where methane (CH4) is broken down into its constituent atoms.

So, the correct answer is:

C CH4 (g) → C(g) + 4H(g)

This equation represents the breaking of the four C-H bonds in methane, which is the process for which we want to find the average bond energy.
