Answer: energy is absorbed by the molecules.

Explanation:

As ice transforms into steam,energy is absorbed by the molecules. In order for the molecules to spread apart to change from solid to liquid to gas, they must increase the amount of kinetic energy they have. This is done by absorbing energy.
