  • A
    The fusion curve of water has a positive slope,while that of $CO_2$ has a negative slope.
  • B
    The fusion curve of water has a negative slope,while that of $CO_2$ has a positive slope.
  • C
    Water has a triple point,but $CO_2$ does not.
  • D
    The sublimation curve of water is steeper than that of $CO_2$.

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

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.
