${H_2}O(g) + C(s) \to CO(g) + {H_2}(g);\,\Delta H = 131\,kJ$$CO(g) + \frac{1}{2}{O_2}(g) \to C{O_2}(g);\Delta H = - 282\,kJ$

${H_2}(g) + \frac{1}{2}{O_2}(g) \to {H_2}O(g);\,\Delta H = - 242\,kJ$

$C(s) + {O_2}(g) \to C{O_2}(g);\,\Delta H = X\,kJ$ The value of $X$ is ......$kJ$

Assertion $A$ : Boric acid is a weak acid

Reason $R$ : Boric acid is not able to release $H ^{+}$ion on its own. It receives $OH ^{-}$ion from water and releases $H ^{+}$ion.

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
