Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
The process in which heat is supplied is known as endothermic. The processes in which heat is evolved are called exothermic. Evaporation is an endothermic process because evaporation requires heat to be consumed from the surroundings to increase the kinetic energy of molecules and convert liquid into gas molecules. For example, sweat cools the human body as it evaporates from the skin.
The correct statement would be that evaporation is an endothermic process.
