Allotropes are different in the way of BONDING arrangement like we can see in graphite and diamond. But in case of steam and ice, they are not BONDED differently...their PHYSICAL STATE is different but the intermolecular spaces and intermolecular attraction
thus, steam and ice are not allotropes of water
