Answer:
specific heat.
Explanation:
Definition:
The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree is called specific heat.
Formula:
Q = m. c. ΔT
Q = amount of heat required
m = mass of substance
c = specific heat of substance
ΔT = change in temperature
The substance with greater value of specific heat require more heat to raise the temperature while the substance with lower value will raise its temperature very quickly by absorbing smaller heat.
For example the beach sand gets hot very quickly because of lower specific heat of sand while water is colder than sand because of higher specific heat capacity.

and it is D for your ansower
Explanation:
Answer with Explanation:
A candle relights when a match is held above the wick because its trail of smoke still contains some of the wax. When candles are burned, the heat of the flame turns the the wax (which is originally solid) into liquid (commonly near the wick) and then evaporates as gas. The vaporized wax actually protect the wick and this is the reason why it is not burned. So, when you put off a candle, the vaporized wax is still present near the wick. This, remember, holds heat and light energy. Thus, this explains why the candle can be relighted once you hold a match above the wick. It then allows the match to ignite.
Thus, this explains the answer.
