Solution:
The above statement is true.The water is kept in an earthen pot during summer because of evaporation. Earthen pots have large tiny pores on the surface and are made up of mud particles. It contains water molecules that continuously seep through these pores in the surface, and water evaporates very quickly through these pores. Due to this evaporation process, the heat of the water inside the pot is lost, which lowers the temperature of the water. As a result, the earthen pot and water lose heat, making the water inside the pot cool.
