Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In a substance, the total energy of its molecular motion is known as heat. Whereas when we measure the average energy of molecular motion of a substance then it is known as temperature.

So, any increase or decrease in temperature will lead to change in heat of a substance.

When one mole of a substance is burned then the amount of energy released in the form of heat is known as heat of combustion.

Relation between heat and temperature is as follows.

q = $m \times C \times \Delta T$
