Answer : Option A) The liquid turns to a gas.

Explanation : When the hydrogen bonds between the molecule of water breaks, it produces hydrogen and oxygen gases. As the intermolecular forces of attraction between the molecule is broken, it gets enlarged and therefore the phase changes into gas. Breaking of intermolecular forces of attraction between the atoms of the molecule results into phase transition.
