Consider the statement below.“When nitrogen is liquefied, heat is released.”Is this statement true or false?

A
It is false because nitrogen absorbs heat when it is liquefied.
B
It is false because nitrogen cannot absorb enough heat to liquefy.
C
It is true because heat is released when a gas changes to a liquid.
D
It is true because heat is released when a liquid changes to a gas.
