Solution

The correct options are
A
Combination reaction

B
Oxidation reaction

C
Exothermic reaction

$C + O_{2} \to C O_{2} + H e a t$

This is a combination reaction because carbon and oxygen atoms combine to form a carbon dioxide molecule.
As oxygen is getting added to carbon, this is an oxidation reaction.
It is also an exothermic reaction because heat is being released.
