Four spheres $A, B, C$ and $D$ are of same radius but made of different metals. Their densities are in ratio $6 : 3 : 4 : 5$ and specific heats are in ratio $2 : 5 : 4 : 6$ . These are initially kept at the same temperature and placed in the same surroundings. The sphere which has the slowest rate of cooling is
