Solution
The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion a.)Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion. During evaporation particles of the liquid gain energy from the surroundings to overcome the force of attraction between them. As a result loss of heat energy occurs in the surroundings that is why evaporation causes cooling . If we pour some acetone on our hand we will fell cool because the particles gain energy from our hand to evaporate . Thus evaporation causes cooling
