Solution

The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
At STP conditions, one mole of gas occupies $22.4$ liters of volume.

Here, $8 g$ of methane means only half mole. For one mole, $22.4$ liters they will occupy. For half mole, only $11.2$ liters they will occupy.

$m o l e v o l 1 ⟶ 22.4 \frac{1}{2} ⟶ (x)$
$x = \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{22.4}{1} = 11.2$ liters.
