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 that temperature $T$ versus time $t$ plot for the two materials. We denote the specific heat of materials in the liquid (solid) states to be $C_{L 1}$ $\left(C_{S 1}\right)$ and $C_{L 2}\left(C_{S 2}\right)$, respectively. Choose the correct option given below.
