$A$ metal rod of length $10 \text{ cm}$ and area of cross-section $2.8 \times 10^{-4} \text{ m}^2$ is covered with a non-conducting substance. One end of it is maintained at $80^{\circ} \text{C}$,while the other end is put in ice at $0^{\circ} \text{C}$. It is found that $20 \text{ g}$ of ice melts in $5 \text{ min}$. The thermal conductivity of the metal in $\text{J s}^{-1} \text{ m}^{-1} \text{ K}^{-1}$ is (Latent heat of ice is $80 \text{ cal g}^{-1}$.)

  • A

  • B
    $80$
  • C
    $90$
  • D
