Solution

The correct option is A True
When boiling occurs, the more energetic molecules change to a gas, spread out, and form bubbles. These rise to the surface and enter the atmosphere. It requires energy to change from a liquid to a gas. In addition, gas molecules leaving the liquid to take away heat energy. Therefore the temperature of the liquid remains constant during boiling. For example, water will remain at 100ºC (at a pressure of 1 atm or 101.3 kPa) while boiling.

Hence the given statement is true.
