Solution

The correct option is A True
Cement is a hygroscopic material, meaning that in presence of moisture it undergoes chemical reaction termed as hydration. Therefore cement remains in good condition as long as it does not come in contact with moisture. It is must to pack cement in airtight bags. If placed open, cement hardens on its own by absorbing water vapor from the air.
