Step-by-step explanation:

Latent heat, energy absorbed or released by a substance during a change in its physical state (phase) that occurs without changing its temperature. ... Ice cubes melting as their temperature rises. During melting, the ice absorbs latent heat, which is used to change the state of the water from ice to liquid water.

Here heat is absorbed to break the crystalline nature of ice and to make well separation between water molecules.
