Two different liquids of the 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 in the liquid states as $C_{L 1}$ and $C_{L 2}$ for materials $1$ and $2$, respectively, and the latent heats of fusion as $L_1$ and $L_2$, respectively. Choose the correct option.

Latent heat of vaporisation of water is $22.6 \times 10^5 \ J \ kg^{-1}$. The amount of heat needed to convert $100 \ kg$ of water into vapour at $100^{\circ} C$ is
