$A$ metallic rod of cross-sectional area $9.0 \, cm^2$ and length $0.54 \, m$,with the surface insulated to prevent heat loss,has one end immersed in boiling water and the other in an ice-water mixture. The heat conducted through the rod melts the ice at the rate of $1 \, g$ for every $33 \, s$. The thermal conductivity of the rod is ....... $W m^{-1} K^{-1}$.
