Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
B

From the principle of calorimetry, the heat lost by a hot body is equal to heat gained

by the cold body. Therefore during this process, heat exchange must be quick, otherwise some heat is lost due to radiations. As the metals are good conductors, therefore heat exchange will be quicker.
