She could have put a steel spoon into the vessel. The correct option is A.

Explanation:

When a candle wax is passed through heat, it is capable of melting within 10- 15 minutes of boiling. Therefore it is not capable of looking the same after 30 mins of heating.

When sugar is put into water it dissolves. When heated it has the ability to crystallize out after water is evaporated but doesn't retain its shape.

A piece of chocolate will melt the instance it comes in contact with any form of heat.

A steel spoon is an alloy metal which is not capable of melting by boiling in water for just 30 minutes. A steel is an alloy of Iron and carbon which melts when superheated at the temperature of 1510 degrees.
