Detailed Solution

Assertion: During the evaporation of liquid, the temperature is decreased.
In the process of evaporation of liquid the temperature of the liquid decrease because the surface molecules while evaporating take some amount of energy from the other molecules of a liquid. Thus, evaporation causes cooling of the liquid.
Reason: We know that the kinetic energy of the molecules is directly proportional to temperature. The formula of kinetic energy is given as
