$$C(s) + 2{H_2}_{(g)} + \frac{ 1 }{ 2 }{O_2}_{(g)}\longrightarrow CH_3OH_{(g)}$$ .....(8)
The following energies are required:
$$2{H_2}_{(g)}\longrightarrow 4H_{(g)}$$
$$C(graphite)\longrightarrow C_{(g)}$$
$$\frac{1 }{ 2 }{O_2}_{(g)}\longrightarrow O_{(g)}$$
The total energy required is
$$(218\times 4) + 175 + 249 = 1836\ kJ$$ .....From equation (5), (6) and (7)
The following bonds are formed:
Three C-H bonds, one C-O bond, and O-H bond
The total energy released is
$$(3\times 415) + 356 + 463 = 2064\ kJ$$
Net energy released for $$CH_3OH_{(l)} = 228 + 38 = 266\ kJ$$ .... From eq (1) and (2)
Therefore,
$$\Delta H_fCH_3OH_{(l)} = -266$$ kJ mol$$^{ -1 }$$
Hence, the correct option is $$A$$
