The heat of neutralization of which acid and base is close to $-13.6 \ kcal/mol$?

Consider the reactions:
$C_{(s)} + 2H_{2(g)} \to CH_{4(g)}, \Delta H = -x \ kcal$
$C_{(g)} + 4H_{(g)} \to CH_{4(g)}, \Delta H = -x_1 \ kcal$
$CH_{4(g)} \to CH_{3(g)} + H_{(g)}, \Delta H = +y \ kcal$
The bond energy of $C-H$ bond is:

When $2 \ mol$ of $C_2H_{6(g)}$ is completely combusted,it releases $3129 \ kJ$ of heat. What is the enthalpy of formation of $C_2H_{6(g)}$? The $\Delta H_f$ values for $CO_{2(g)}$ and $H_2O_{(l)}$ are $-395 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$ and $-286 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$ respectively.
