Question

Heat energy is absorbed during the transformation of ice in to water and water into vapour

Answer 1

Latent heat. ... For example, when a pot of water is kept boiling, the temperature remains at 100 °C (212 °F) until the last drop evaporates, because all the heat being added to the liquid is absorbed as latent heat of vaporization and carried away by the escaping vapour molecules.
