When something changes phase from solid to liquid, or from liquid to gas, it takes energy to break the intermolecular interactions. These interactions between the water molecules are what make it solid. When you have ice, these interactions are strongest, which is why ice is hard.
With the addition of heat to â¦ the substance, the H2O, in the form of ice, undergoes what is called a phase change, which is the transformation of a solid to a liquid to a gas. Therefore, since the substance still remains to be H2O, it is considered to undergo a physical change.
