Solution

The correct option is B glass
Combustible substances: Substances that burn easily or catch fire easily are called combustible substances.

Glass has high ignition temperature. Thus, glass is not combustible.

Camphor, Alcohol and Straw have lower ignition temperatures so easily burn in the presence of oxygen and readily produce heat.
