Solution

The correct option is C X : Rapid combustion
Y : Spontaneous combustion
Z : Explosion combustion
When a substance undergoes combustion quickly, it is said to have undergone rapid combustion. So, X has undergone rapid combustion.
When a substance undergoes combustion without the help of any external agent, it is called spontaneous combustion. Hence, Y has undergone spontaneous combustion.
When a substance burns with the evolution of a lot of heat, light, sound and gases it is called an explosion. Therefore, Z has undergone explosion.
