H2 (g) + 1/2 * O2 (g) ==> H2O (l) at 298°C
Initially H2 & O2 are gases. Let us assume that the conditions are STP. Then after the reaction the volumes comes down to 18 ml of water for 1 mole. Initially 1 mole of H2 has 22.4 liters and half mole of Oxygen occupies 11.2 liters. Final pressure changes as volume changes and temperature remains constant.

We know from the law of thermodynamics:
ΔH = ΔU + W
-285.8 kJ / mol = ΔU + 18.66085 kJ
=> ΔU = -304.46 kJ
