C
Heat is absorbed.
D
Bubbles appear.
E
A precipitate forms.
F
The color changes.

Explanation

Sodium reacts with water, releasing heat and producing sparks or flames, so heat and light are produced. The bubbles are hydrogen gas, which is evidence that a new substance forms. Heat is not absorbed, and no precipitate or color change is described.
