if it takes alcohol 185 cal to evaporate and water 552 cal to evaporate, which is better to use to reduce a fever?

The question doesn't make sense unless you specify that the amount (in grams) of alcohol and the amount of water are the same. Gram for gram the water uses up more heat to evaporate so it would be the more effective at reducing fever.
thank you I am sorry, it is the same amount of grams. thanks.
