Question: When water changes to steam, energy is
- converted into matter
- changed to a different form
- transferred to the surrounding environment
- created within the water
- both absorbed and released simultaneously
- conserved as the phase change occurs
- not involved in the process
- absorbed by the water
- released by the water
- destroyed as the phase change occurs
