Answer :

The option a) burns is the answer.

Lighting a match and letting is burn is an example of a chemical change. Chemical reactions cause chemical changes. In a chemical reaction two or more substances, called the reactants, form different substances called products.

A chemical property describes the ability of a substance to undergo a specific chemical change. To identify a chemical property, we look for a chemical change. A chemical change always produces one or more types of matter that differ from the matter present before the change.
