$250\,g$ of water and an equal volume of alcohol of mass $200\,g$ are placed successively in the same calorimeter and cool from $60^{\circ}C$ to $55^{\circ}C$ in $130\,s$ and $67\,s$ respectively. If the water equivalent of the calorimeter is $10\,g$,then the specific heat of alcohol in $\text{cal/g}^{\circ}C$ is:

  • A
    $1.30$
  • B
    $0.67$
  • C
    $0.62$
  • D
    $0.985$
