  1. The sprinkling of water slightly reduces the temperature of a closed room because
    1. temperature of water is less than that of the room
    2. specific heat of water is high
    3. water has large latent heat of vaporisation
    4. water is a bad conductor of heat
Correct Option: C

Water has large latent heat of vaporisation. When it is sprinked over a large area, its evaporation occurs which, in trun, causes cooling.
