Solution

The correct option is B (i) Endothermic (ii) Exothermic
Reaction with the absorption of energy is called an endothermic reaction.
In the reaction
(i) Sodium Bicarbonate needs the energy to form sodium carbonate, water, and carbon dioxide.
Hence it is an endothermic reaction.

Reaction with the release of energy is called an exothermic reaction.
(ii) on the burning of magnesium metal with oxygen gas, magnesium oxide is formed by the release of energy in the form of heat and light.
Hence it is an exothermic reaction.
