Best answer
Correct option is (a) Green sand moulds

The explanation: The hot tearing of the casting refers to the one of the types of casting defect that weakens the strength of the casting defects. As the moisture is present in the green sand mould, the hot tearing is considerably reduced in the green sand mould.
