The process of boiling actually cools the water.

Is this true or false? Can someone explain what this actually means or why it does that? Makes no sense to me.

Answer:

Boiling is the process where liquid (water) changes to gas (vapor) directly by no cooling process. As it's boiling, heat is being continuously give continuously so how can cooling happen?

But in the another way this statement can be correct too as evaporation too changes liquid to gas but does cools the liquid as high energetic liquid particles are escaping while leaving down the low energetic particles causing cooling.

To sum it up, boiling doesn't make any cooling.

Answer:
The process of evaporation cools the water not boiling.
Step-by-step explanation:
This could be a confusing question but the answer is pretty simple.
Boiling is the process where liquid (water) changes to gas (vapour) directly by no cooling process. As it's boiling, this means that heat is being contimously given to water so how cooling can happen?
But in other way round this statement can be correct too as evaporation too changes liquid to gas but does cools the liquid as high energetic liquid particles are escaping while leavleaving down the low energetic particles causing cooling.
To sum it up, boiling doesn't make any cooling.
