As we learned

Equal Vectors -

Two vectors are said to be equal if they have the same magnitude, direction and represent the same physical quantity.

- wherein

\vec{a}= \vec{b} if \mid \vec{a}\mid = \mid \vec{b}\mid and direction of \vec{a}\vec{b} are same.

 

 \vec{a}+\vec{b}=3\hat{i}-2\hat{j}+5\hat{k}

\vec{c}+\vec{d}=\vec{0}

\vec{a}+\vec{c}=\hat{i}+\hat{j}-\hat{k}

\vec{b}+\vec{c}=0\hat{i}+5\hat{j}-8\hat{k}

We can see, Option (B) gives equal vectors both being equal to \hat{i}+\hat{j}-\hat{k}

\therefore Option (B)
