“Water” is the best thermal insulator.
Option: B
Step-by-step explanation:
“Thermal insulators” are the materials which do not allow heat to transfer. “Water” is the substance which does not transfer heat. Hence, the “water” is the best “thermal insulator”. Water is the bad conductor of thermal heat. Water has “low thermal conductivity” than other substances, so this acts as an insulator as long as it is not traveled from one place to another. Heat is transferred when a “hot object collides” with “the cold objects”. The “thermal conductivity” of “water” is 0.6 W/m K.
