The most probable answer is: (a) <span>The black pot emits heat at a faster rate than the silver pot. It means the black pot conducts heat at a higher rate than the silver pot, that's why it cooled off faster. It also means that the silver pot retains heat better and is more of an insulator.</span>

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Black color absorbs heat more quickly and it also emits heat at a faster rate.

Whereas silver is one of the best conductor of heat and electricity. Therefore, it absorbs heat more quickly but it does not emit heat at a faster rate.

Therefore, we can conclude that the statement black pot emits heat at a faster rate than the silver pot best explains that black pot is significantly cooler than the water in the silver pot.
