The question is incomplete. The complete question is

Absorption of energy into the refrigerant causes a phase change from _____.

solid to liquid

liquid to vapor

vapor to liquid

liquid to solid

Answer:

liquid to vapor

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the kinetic theory of matter, matter in the gaseous state contains more energetic particles than matter in the liquid state.

Hence if a refrigerant in the liquid state absorbs sufficient energy, it undergoes a phase change from liquid to vapour. Hence the answer.
