What type of word is this and that?

"This" and "that" are demonstrative pronouns.

Here's why:

* Pronoun: They stand in for nouns. For example, instead of saying "I want that apple," you could say "I want that."

* Demonstrative: They point to specific things. They indicate which thing is being referred to.
