A) 64 J of energy is released

Sum of energy of Reactants = Energy of Products

Sum of energy of Reactants = 346 + 153 = 499 J

But Product is 435J, which is less than that of the reactants, which means some must have been lost as heat.

499 - 435 = 64 J

Hence 64J of energy must have been released.
