Heat is the amount of heat required to change the temperature of 1 gram of a substance by 1°c, and it is related to the chemical composition of the substance.

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.

out of these options:

ability to burn paper

pure sodium reacting violently with water

the boiling point of water

helium does not tend to react with anything

i would say this is a physical property:

helium does not tend to react with anything

why? :

i said helium does not tend to react with anything because well, it reacts to ! but ability to burn paper, pure sodium reacting violently with water, & the boiling point of water are chemical or

physical properties: the properties of a substance that can be observed without changing the chemical makeup of the substance

chemical properties: properties of a substance relating to the chemical nature and reactivity of the substance
