Why does ice melt in a metal container faster that in a plastic one

• Heat energy from the metal transfers slower into the ice cube that from the plastic

• Heat energy from the metal transfers faster into the ice cube that from the plastic

• Heat energy from the metal transfers into the ice cube at the same rate as the plastic

• Heat energy cannot transfer from the plastic or metal container
