Talking two different color coding for two files having .c extension


In Fedora, I used the ls -l command to see the directory listing. But I noticed that while all .c files were being shown in green , there was one .c file which was being shown in black.How can two files having the same extension be executable /normal?

Would be helpful if you told us what the rest of the ls -l command told you? I would imagine it is either a different file type (maybe symlink) or has differing permissions.
