Verified step by step guidance

Understand the concept of acidity: Acidity refers to the ability of a substance to donate a proton (H⁺ ion) in a chemical reaction. This is a correct association.

Examine the concept of reactivity with water: Reactivity with water involves a chemical reaction between a substance and water, which may result in the formation of new products. It is not simply the tendency to dissolve in water, which is a physical property known as solubility.

Consider the concept of flammability: Flammability is the ability of a substance to catch fire and burn in the presence of oxygen. This is a correct association.

Review the concept of oxidation: Oxidation is a chemical process involving the loss of electrons by a molecule, atom, or ion. This is a correct association.

Identify the incorrect association: The incorrect association is 'Reactivity with water - Tendency to dissolve in water' because reactivity involves a chemical change, whereas dissolving is a physical process.
