Solution:
The above statement is true.Evaporation is when a liquid changes into vapours even below its boiling point. Evaporation is a surface phenomenon. The evaporation of the liquid particles from the surface is continuous till all the liquid is converted into vapours. Evaporation depends upon various factors like temperature, humidity, surface area, wind speed and nature of the liquid. The rate of evaporation of a liquid can be increased by increasing its surface area as it is a surface phenomenon.
