We can't really give a good answer without knowing what the other 5 Pokémon are.
What are your other 5 Pokémon. What are your other 5 Pokémon’s movesets.
I think Carracosta would usually be worse assuming the rest of the team doesn't share any types with Carracosta or Chandelure. Samurott and Simipour are better water Pokemon, and Archeops is a better rock Pokemon.
Sorry about that I forgot
I think Darmanitan is better than both Carracosta and Chandelure. Flare blitz at level 33 and 140 physical attack at level 35 is just not something every Pokemon has access to.

Chandelure my dude. It sounds really cool in black and white. But in all seriousness you don't really have to think about viability or stats if you're just playing normally, pick the one you think looks cooler, helps you with a difficult fight. Or has some other alluring quality.

I would suggest chandelure as it is superior than carracosta in stats and the fire and ghost is an amazing typing for a black playthrough.

Chandelure @ Choice Specs
Ability: Flame Body
EVs: 92 HP / 52 Atk / 84 Def / 104 SpA / 76 SpD / 100 Spe
IVs: 0 Atk
- Energy Ball
- Flamethrower
- Shadow Ball
- Pain Split

Energy ball can be used for coverage for water rock and ground types.
Flamethrower is a STAB,high base power move.
Shadow Ball is another stab move with 30% chance of lowering opponents special defense.
Pain Split is for gaining hp when its low
