Detailed Solution

(I) some amount of energy is used in the vapourization H2O(l)

\therefore\;\Delta _fH(H_2O_{(g)})<\Delta _fH(H_2O_{(l)})

(II)  Molecules of gas are having high Kinetic energy, high disorder and weak attractive forces

    on condensation , K.E decreases , randomness decreases , attractive forces becomes stronger energy is released

\therefore\;\Delta H=-ve
