We have to calculate the change in energy and nature of reaction. ∆U = Q + W Here ∆U is change of energy, Q is heat absorbed/released , W is work done. Since we have decrease of the enthalpy so we have Q = negative in sign and it is -373 KJ Since enthalpy means energy is decreasing so the reaction must be Exothermic. Also Work done on the gas is taken as positive work done so w = + 138 KJ ∆U = -373 KJ + 138 KJ => -235 KJ
