Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following diagram.

In this diagram we can see how the energy in the reaction changes over time. The energy of the products is greater than the energy of the reactants. That means that the products have won some energy. That represents an endothermic reaction where the reactants absorb energy from the surrounding to form the products.

Answer: D. Endothermic reaction.
