Solution

The correct option is B B and C only
Compounds which have higher acidic strength than conjugate acid of sodium bicarbonate (i.e., carbonic acid) will react with NaHCO3 to produce CO2.
Phenol is a weak acid than carbonic acid so it cannot decompose NaHCO3.
Generally, all those acids which are more acidic than phenol will release CO2 on reaction with NaHCO3.

Due to -R effect of NO2 it will withdraw the electron density toward themself so the ease of removal of H+ is increased so it more acidic than phenol so it will react with sodium bicarbonate to give CO2

Benzoic acid is stronger than phenol so it also liberate CO2 with NaHCO3 solution.

NH2 are +R effect group, it increase the electron density on OH and make them less acidic than phenol.

Thus,

enough to liberate CO2 with NaHCO3 solution.
Hence, option (d) is correct.
