Acts 8:26-40 tells us that Philip baptized an Ethiopian official in charge of the treasury for Candace, queen of the Ethiopians.

The Ethiopian official was sitting in his chariot, reading the writings of Isaiah the prophet (specifically, Isaiah 53:7-8), when Philip approached him and began a conversation about what he was reading. Philip told the Ethiopian that, "if you believe with all your heart, you may [be baptized]" (NKJV). The Ethiopian replied that "I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God", at which point Philip and the Ethiopian entered the water, and Philip baptized him.

What is the reason why Jesus was baptized by John?

Jesus fulfilled Scripture when he was water baptized. But He was not baptized for His sins- He was sinless. When Jesus was baptized, He was baptized with the Holy Spirit, and with the Spirit came power. Jesus never performed any miracles before he was baptized. He had the Holy spirit, but he was not baptized with the full power of the Spirit until John baptized him.

Were the twelve apostles of Jesus baptized?

We don't know. However, it was very likely that many of them were originally disciples of John the Baptist (e.g. Philip, Nathaniel) and so, as a result, may well have been baptised. But there are no records of baptism among the disciples. I don't think they have gotten baptized physically but spiritually they already have been baptized for Jesus baptized with fire and whoever believes in Him is granted eternal life.
