Two different liquids of same mass are kept in two identical vessels,which are placed in a freezer that extracts heat from them at the same rate,causing each liquid to transform into a solid. The schematic figure below shows the temperature $T$ versus time $t$ plot for the two materials. We denote the specific heat of materials in the liquid (solid) states to be $C_{L1}$ $(C_{S1})$ and $C_{L2}$ $(C_{S2})$,respectively. Choose the correct option given below.

  • A
    $C_{L1} < C_{L2}$ and $C_{S1} < C_{S2}$
  • B
    $C_{L1} > C_{L2}$ and $C_{S1} < C_{S2}$
  • C
    $C_{L1} > C_{L2}$ and $C_{S1} > C_{S2}$
  • D
    $C_{L1} < C_{L2}$ and $C_{S1} > C_{S2}$
