Solution

Dear student,
Steam at 100 degree Celsius has more heat. So the statement is false.

Steam causes severe burns than water. Particles in steam, that is, water vapour at 373 K (100^oC) have more energy than boiling water at the same temperature as particles in steam have absorbed extra energy in the form of latent heat of vaporisation.
