Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
Sipping hot tea or milk is easier from a saucer because the surface area of the saucer is large as compared to that of the cup. The larger surface area enables fast cooling of the substance or liquid due to evaporation. Hence, the saucer allows faster evaporation due to its large surface area and cools the hot tea or milk more quickly making it convenient for drinking.
The correct statement would be that we cannot sip hot tea or milk faster from a cup rather than from a saucer.
