Solution

The correct option is D
Assertion is incorrect but reason is correct.

The explanation for Assertion statement
But Yes, evaporation can occur in an air tight container if you put some water in dry air and sealed the container.
The explanation for Reason statement
Change of liquid state into gaseous or vapor state is known as evaporation
During evaporation, The liquid molecules on surface gets converted to gas absorbing heat from the surface which reduces the temperature of the remaining liquid.
Kinetic energy of molecules increases with an increase in temperature because the collisions increase and heat is generated to increase the temperature.
Hence option D is correct.

The conversion of a substance from its liquid state into its gaseous state at a temperature below its boiling point is called_______( boiling/ evaporation).

Q. Assertion :Evaporation occurs on the surface of liquid and it is a vaporization of liquid. It is a state of transition from liquid to gaseous state. Reason: Evaporation occurs when there is exposure of water to air and water molecules change into vapor and these vapors rise up and form clouds.

The process in which a liquid changes into its gaseous state at any temperature above its boiling point is called evaporation.

Q. Assertion :Sublimation is the transition of a substance directly from the solid to the gas phase without passing through the intermediate liquid phase. Reason: Evaporation is a type of vaporization of a liquid that occurs from the surface of a liquid into a gaseous phase that is not saturated with the evaporating substance

Evaporation is the change of liquid to the vapor state at any temperature below the boiling point of the liquid. Though both evaporation and boiling represent change of state, but these are different. Whereas evaporation occurs at all temperature, boiling occurs only at a specific temperature known as boiling point temperature. Moreover, evaporation is a surface phenomenon but boiling occurs throughout the liquid including its surface.
