Answer is: B. C (s) + 2S (s) + 89.4 kJ → CS2 (l).

Missing question:

A. C (s) + 2S (s) → CS2 (l) + 89.4 kJ.

B. C (s) + 2S (s) + 89.4 kJ → CS2 (l).

C. C (s) + 2S (s) + 89.4 kJ → CS2 (l) + 89.4 kJ.

D. C (s) + 2S (s) → CS2 (l).

Because enthalpy of the system is greater that zero, this is endothermic reaction (chemical reaction that absorbs more energy than it releases), heat is included as a reactant.
