It’s residential houseI doubt your operating pressure is 10 psi. That’s just what the meter is rated for.
Max allowable operating pressure
You need to find out what pressure is available at your meter outlet. It’s not going to be 10psi. Pinky promise
What are you trying to do? As you are looking at the meter, are you trying to design the entire gas piping layout for the house?It’s residential house
That’s probably why I was confused
So for the average house should I use

You can't add a gas user to the end of an existing gas line and not look at its impact on gas flow to other users upstream of your tie-in. But as your attachment is from a gas grill website, if that is what you are doing, you'd probably be OK.
My outlet pressure 6wc
I’m looking to run 40-50 feet line to the other side of the house for tankless water heater
I need that it will be enough 200 k btu
I’m not sure if 1 “ will be enough or I should go with 1.25
It will be very helpful if you let me know which gas piping chart I should look on
Base on outlet pressure from my gas meter is 6 wc
With what you are doing, and the quantity of gas you will need for a tankless water heater, you need to evaluate your entire natural gas system. Depending on where in your gas piping system you are connecting this new service, you very well may need to re-pipe and/or increase the size of some of the existing piping in your home.

Yes, that is why I said, "You can't add a gas user to the end of an existing gas line and not look at its impact on gas flow to other users upstream of your tie-in." And, "Depending on where in your gas piping system you are connecting this new service, you very well may need to re-pipe and/or increase the size of some of the existing piping in your home."He needs to connect it directly to the meter outlet.
Yes, of course he could be maxed out already so it’s a good idea to write down the existing load and add it to the new load and make sure you’re not exceeding the max allowable for the meter.
But if he connects at the meter outlet to 1..25” tee, the new line will be sized properly if the old piping is satisfactory now then it should be after provided the meter will handle the demand.
