B
The material with the higher heat capacity
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of substance by 1 degree Celsius is known as the specific heat capacity of that substance. Water has one of the highest heat capacities with a value of 4.18J/g/°C.

Detailed explanation-2: -Thermal conductivity is the measure of a metal’s ability to conduct heat. What this means is that that the metal acts to cool temperatures, through a process of dissipation. The metals with the highest thermal conductivity are copper and aluminium. The lowest are steel and bronze.
