Answer: hot

Explanation:

Exothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is lesser than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is released in the form of heat and the system will be cold and surroundings will be hot.

Endothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is greater than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is absorbed in the form of heat and the system will be hot and surroundings will be cold.

As heat is absorbed, the reaction is endothermic and the system will feel hot.
