    Aluminium has best conductivity

    So option (a) will be correct answer

    Explanation:

    We have given material resistance of of different material

    Aluminium = 0.0000000282 ohm

    Carbon = 0.000035

    Germanium = 0.46 ohm

    And silicon = 640 ohm

    We know that resistance is the opposition in flow of current and conductivity of the material is inversely proportional to the resistance

    So the material which has less Resistance will have high conductivity

    As aluminium has less resistance so it will have high conductivity

    So option (a) will be correct answer
