The amount of energy required to form a soap bubble of radius $2$ cm from a soap solution is nearly : (surface tension of soap solution $= 0.03\ \text{N m}^{-1}$)
Answer: (C) $3.01 \times 10^{-4}$ J
A soap bubble has two surfaces (inside and outside), so the new surface area is $2 \times 4\pi r^2$.
$$W = S \times 8\pi r^2 = 0.03 \times 8 \times 3.14 \times (0.02)^2 \approx 3.01 \times 10^{-4}\ \text{J}$$
